Question of the Day

Suggested by Shaker Vetiver: What is your favorite feminist song and/or album of all time?

(Also welcome: General recommendations about feminist artists/bands.)

For me, it rarely gets better than Nina Simone declaring: "I got my hair, on my head / My brains, my ears / My eyes, nose, and my mouth / I got my smile / I got my tongue, my chin / My neck, my boobies / My heart, my soul, and my back / I got my sex / I got my arms, my hands / My fingers, my legs / My feet, my toes, and my liver / Got my blood / I got life."

Yes, ma'am.

Nina Simone: "Ain't Got No/I Got Life"
