'Girl on Girl' explores pop culture's impact on women

Season 2025 Episode 151 | 5m 22s

After decades of political and social progress, women’s rights are now the subject of renewed debate and policy change, amid a broader backlash on the goals of modern feminism. Atlantic staff writer and Pulitzer Prize finalist Sophie Gilbert joins Ali Rogin to discuss her new book, "Girl on Girl," which argues that pop culture of the 90s and early 2000s may have set back a generation of women.
