Michelle Goldberg: Women Are People—3/4

  • 13 years ago
“One really wonders what exactly is this dystopia that they're imagining. This dystopia of high education rates, low poverty rates, better healthcare than we have. Sweden is not a perfect society and there are things I prefer about the United States. I prefer dynamism, its immigration, its multiculturalism, but we have a lot to learn from Scandinavia.”

Investigative journalist and author of “The Means of Reproduction: Sex, Power and the Future of the World,” Ms. Goldberg’s prior book, “Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism,” was a New York Times bestseller and a finalist for the New York Public Library’s Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism. She is a former senior writer at Salon.com. Among the many who have published Ms. Goldberg’s work are The New Republic, The Nation, Glamour and Rolling Stone magazines in the U.S. and The Guardian in the U.K. She has taught at New York University’s graduate school of journalism. Ms. Goldberg earned her graduate degree at the University of California - Berkeley.  She is a contributor to The Daily Beast.
