Gloria Steinem, the co-founder of Ms. Magazine and prominent feminist activist, died in New York City on Wednesday at the age of 92. Steinem challenged gender stereotypes and championed feminist ideals like reproductive freedom, and she told the AP in 2015 that she would have stuck to writing if editors had been willing to let her write about the women’s movement.
