Politics

As the second-wave feminist saying goes- the personal is political. I don't understand people who view politics as some far off arena that doesn't affect our daily lives- every aspect of our living is dictated by politics, micro and macro. That is why I am a political science major, planning on minoring in gender studies starting next semester. I think there is a lot of fear and ignorance in politics, which leads to inaction or marginalization and I want to break through it to make the biggest difference I can as a person.
