The Story of Gloria Steinem: From Ms. to Rise, Girl, Rise - A Legacy of Feminism for Every Generation

By Thomas A. Fitch

Gloria Steinem is more than a name in history books-she is a voice that continues to echo across generations. From the bold founding of Ms. Magazine in the 1970s to her most recent work encouraging young readers with Rise, Girl, Rise, Steinem's journey tells the story of feminism as both a movement and a way of life.

Gloria Steinem: From Ms. to Rise, Girl, Rise - A Legacy of Feminism for Every Generation is a powerful exploration of how one woman's passion for justice reshaped the world and how her influence remains alive today. This book traces Steinem's path from a pioneering journalist who dared to speak the unspeakable, to an activist who inspired millions, to a storyteller who continues to plant seeds of courage in the youngest minds.

At its heart, this book is not only about what Steinem achieved but about what her story means for us now. It brings to life the founding of Ms. Magazine as more than a publication it was a revolution in print, a space where women saw their own lives reflected with honesty and dignity for the first time. It recalls the bold letters, essays, and voices that filled its pages, and how those words sparked conversations that changed laws, families, and futures.

Yet Steinem's influence did not end with the printed page. Through media, film, and global activism, she proved that feminism belongs everywhere in classrooms, on screens, in living rooms, and on streets where people march for justice. She showed that change is not the work of one person but of many, woven together by friendship, community, and shared determination.

This book also highlights a truth that makes Steinem's story enduring: she has never stopped evolving. With her recent children's book, she has turned her attention to a new generation, ensuring that the flame of equality continues to burn brightly in young hearts. Her message is clear: feminism is not just for the past it is for today, tomorrow, and every generation to come.

Written with warmth and clarity, Gloria Steinem: From Ms. to Rise, Girl, Rise is a book for readers of all ages students discovering feminism for the first time, adults who marched alongside Steinem, and children who are just beginning to dream of the world they want to create. It is both history and inspiration, both reflection and invitation.

In these pages, readers will discover that Steinem's greatest gift is not only her own voice but the way she has encouraged others to use theirs. Her story reminds us that feminism is not finished it is alive, growing, and carried forward every time someone dares to believe in equality.

This is not just the story of Gloria Steinem. It is the story of a movement. And it is an invitation for each of us to rise.
