Podcast: In Bed With The RightPublished On: Tue Apr 14 2026
Description: For this episode, Moira walks Adrian through the life of Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815 - 1902). Famous as a pioneering feminist intellectual and crusader for women's suffrage, Stanton is today also remembered for the racism and anti-immigrant sentiment that dominated the second half of her incredibly long career. We explore how these two go together, and what Stanton's life tells us about the effects of political disappointment.Find Ellen Carol Dubois's new Elizabeth Cady Stanton: A Revolutionary Life here.Read (or "reëncounter") Moira's review essay in the New Yorker here.
