My Life on the Road

Gloria Steinem (2015)

THE A5 BOOK REVIEW

One of our favorite travel-related memoirs comes from Gloria Steinem, the famous activist and feminist leader.  My Life on the Road tells the story of how a lifetime of travel has affected her view on the world, starting from her summers as a kid going on cross-country road trips with her family.  Her writing is candid and humble, and her quest for discovery and learning as a self-described “wandering organizer” is inspiring.  Steinem's travel book covers her first experience touring India and working directly with women, her career as a journalist, her involvement with Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez, her leadership of the historic 1977 National Women’s Conference, and the founding of Ms. Magazine.  In short, travel is the underlying theme; her life on the road gave her real life first-hand perspective and a sense of freedom that helped fuel a movement that would truly change the world.

GREAT QUOTES FROM MY LIFE ON THE ROAD

“The road is messy in the way that real life is messy. It leads us out of denial and into reality, out of theory and into practice, out of caution and into action, out of statistics and into stories—in short, out of our heads and into our hearts.”
