You Don't Own Me - Women's Rights and the Presidential Election
The other day while pursuing the news section on the International Fashion Blogger's website I encountered a post (you can see the original post here) that brought to my attention a video on women's rights and the upcoming presidential election. The video features fashion icons such as supermodel Alexa Chung, teenage fashion blogger Tavi Gevinson, and one of my inspirations - Lena Dunham along with many others singing the song "You Don't Own Me," a single released by Lesley Gore in 1964. The song discusses problems with women's rights, with text describing what's occurring now in the presidential election and how it effects women.
