Lecture: "Why Feminism Matters"

Jessica Valenti, author of "Full Frontal Feminism" and "The Purity Myth" and founder of the blog Feministing.com, offers this look at American pop culture, women’s health and reproductive rights, and violence against women. “She reveals the various ways a woman’s worth is still tied up with her sexuality rather than her intelligence or character, and challenges young women to consider why feminism still matters to them,” organizers say.
