Women Who Should Be Pretty Pissed Off
Amy Watkin is not a habitually angry person, but issues concerning gender, human rights, who decides how history is written, and any misuses of the word ‘literally’ tend to get her upset. She is an Associate Professor of English at Concordia College in Moorhead, Minnesota. Yes, it’s often cold here, but the people are friendly and the lefse is usually fresh.
