In the Slate Plus bonus segment of Thursday’s edition of the DoubleX Gabfest, hosts Christina Cauterucci, Hanna Rosin, and June Thomas discuss whether the United Nations is sexist.
This past October, the U.N. appointed Wonder Woman as its newest ambassador. The famed heroine, who turned 75 this year, will be the face of a new social media campaign aimed at empowering women and girls.
