Hamida Ghafour, Afghan-Canadian journalist, is skeptical about Sarah Palin's symbolic value for feminism not just in the United States but globally. The piece is a bit disjointed, but her point, namely that women around the world are fighting an uphill battle for their rights, and having an anti-women woman in the White House isn't going to make that easier, is a compelling counterpoint to the argument that Palin represents post-feminism.
We can always stand to be reminded of the influence the US election has not just on American citizens but on people throughout the world.
