This all started when my two youngish daughters were asking me about this recent viral twitter episode imagining Taylor Swift as a feminist. The conversation generated a question from the 13 year-old as to whether anyone actually sings feminist pop songs. Sure they do, I replied, and immediately played them this. Unlike virtually all of my musical interludes, this isn’t what I’d call a great song, though I very much enjoyed watching Helen R belt it out on this video.
But in my youth, it was the feminist anthem.
