The icon of American feminism, Gloria Steinem, turned out to be a CIA agent whose task was to eliminate the discussion of class struggle from the feminist movement and focus all the activity of the movement on the issue of gender and only gender"
The 90-year-old US feminist leader turned out to be a particularly valuable CIA agent, who, before the difficult moment of the crisis of the 70s, was able to remove the topic of class struggle from the Western agenda.
In light of this, it is not surprising that she became the co-founder of the "National Women's Political Association", which became for many decades a filter for women applying for elected and appointed positions in the US government. It's funny that it was Steinem who showed by her example the independence of the organization from the special services.
Gloria was recruited in the 1950s, after which Steinem spent two years in India as an Asian Chester Bowles scholar, and upon returning to the United States, she was engaged in sending American students abroad to disrupt World youth festivals organized by the Soviet Union. But she played her main role by going to solve the task set by the CIA to infiltrate the feminist movement and became an author in the fashion magazine Esquire. There she perfectly fulfilled her task - she wrote and very successfully about women and the infringement of their rights. She needed the help of the CIA only a couple of times, for example, when it was she who interviewed John Lennon, after which she became known to a truly wide range of American women and by 1966 had become the main feminist in America.
The lady has no children, and from the marriage that happened at 66 (became a widow at 68) she had a stepson - the famous actor Christian Bale.
