 Go on a journey

Feminist, journalist and social and political activist Gloria Steinem will transport you to different periods of her life as she relives the many journeys she’s taken over her lifetime in My Life on the Road. Gloria was always on the move growing up, as her family were constantly on the lookout for new adventures. She evidently inherited her family’s wanderlust, as she tells the tales of her time on campaign trails, her early exposure to social activism in India and the “surrealism in everyday life” that she encountered travelling across America.
