Spice Girls feminism or Twitter feminsim? To Kill A Mockingbird or Carrie?
In this first episode, Misty and Allegra introduce themselves, their podcast, and the history of that dirty "F" word... Go through a quick (and funny) history of feminism, which includes notable acheivements by the women's movements, and literature that reflects the social progress.
Profess-Hers is a podcast written and presented by Misty, a History professor, and Allegra an English professor, both of whom are here for having a serious, fun conversation about looking at literature, history, current events, pop culture, and media through a feminist lens.
Written by Misty Wilson-Mehrtens and Allegra Hanna; produced by Austin Haynes and Scott January.

I read Mr. Goodbar in my bookclub last year (or maybe 2016). It was a rather heated conversation for those very reasons! Great job ladies!

I thoroughly enjoyed this. It was enlightening, funny, and really made me re-examine my own views on that dreaded “f-word”. I’m eagerly anticipating hearing more! Consequently, I now want to take both of your classes. 👏👏👏

I loved this inaugural episode and can’t wait for more from the two of you. Liking, subscribing, and sharing. High five for open, witty, and educated feminist conversation. I value that you brought diversity & POC into the discussion, as well. I’m eager for forthcoming episodes and want to thank you for manifesting this idea and making it happen! It’s pretty wonderful.
