Quote by Annie Lennox

If we value what we've inherited for free - from other women - surely it's right morally and ethically for us to wake up and say, 'I'm a feminist. '

If we value what we've inherited for free - from other women

Summary

This quote highlights the idea that if we appreciate and acknowledge the freedoms and rights that were granted to us by the efforts of past generations of women, it is our moral and ethical responsibility to identify ourselves as feminists. By doing so, we not only show our gratitude towards the women who fought for gender equality but also take a stand in continuing their legacy and advocating for equal rights and opportunities for all genders.
