Irene Vallejo hebt in ihren leichtfüßigen, strahlend prägnanten Kolumnen den Schatz an Lebenskunst, den die Antike noch heute für uns birgt. Mit Sokrates feiert sie den Luxus, nachdenken zu dürfen, mit dem Kyniker Krates sinniert sie, wie man das Glück im Jetzt findet, und weiß von Horaz: Wer ein Problem angeht, hat es schon halb gelöst. Wie nebenbei lernt man Mythen, Personen und ihre Geschichten kennen und bekommt wunderbare Impulse für das eigene Leben.

American women are so close to winning the right to vote. They've been fighting for more than 70 years and need approval from just one more state. But suffragists face opposition from every side, including the "Antis" - women who don't want women to have the right to vote. It's more than a fight over politics; it's a debate over the role of women and girls in society, and whether they should be considered equal to men and boys.

"Women's rights are human rights." The words are relevant today, but they could just as easily have been used by Elizabeth Cady Stanton at Seneca Falls in 1848. Or Susan B. Anthony when she was arrested for voting in 1872. Or Alice Paul when she was imprisoned and tortured for peacefully protesting outside of the White House in 1917.

Dovey Johnson Roundtree was most famous for her successful defense of an indigent Black man accused of the murder of Mary Pinchot Meyer, a prominent White Washington, DC, socialite, in 1965.
