100 years ago, a decade before Gloria Steinem was born, American newspaper columnist Elsie Robinson pushed readers to rethink gender inequality. “I’m tired of hearing the differences of men and women emphasized and exploited,” she wrote in 1922. “It has built a wicked wall between the sexes and it’s time we knocked it down.”

Between 1921-1956, Robinson’s “Listen, World!” column reached more than 20 million readers and made her one of the most famous writers in the United States. Her work was even more remarkable because Robinson also drew the editorial cartoons that accompanied her columns -- one of few opinion writers to do so, even today.

Yet Robinson has been largely forgotten. You can help restore her legacy.

We’re launching this store timed to the release of Listen, World!, the first biography of Elsie Robinson. By buying from this store, you’re helping ensure yet another woman isn’t erased from history.
