Rowan Blanchard, 13-Year-Old Disney Star, Is Smarter on Feminism Than Many Adults
LatestRowan Blanchard, the 13-year-old star of Disney Channel’s Girl Meets World, wrote a short and invigorating essay on intersectional feminism that functions as a reason to hope for our future, a very helpful instructional missive and, maybe, a lesson in the value of Tumblr.
On Blanchard’s Tumblr, a fan asked her “opinion on the term ‘white feminism,’ and how common feminism might exclude women of color and non cis/queer women.” Blanchard’s response, which she reposted on her Instagram, was a work of clear and concise intellect that showed young people are just getting it in a way that, perhaps, many of their elder contemporaries are still struggling with.
