What the wheelie suitcase tells us about misogyny and innovation
Manage episode 334868246 series 2739249
We have had the wheel for some 5,000 years. And we’ve had suitcases since the 19th century. But we didnt get wheels on suitcases until the 1970s.
Swedish journalist Katrine Marçal explains what this tells us about gender, misogyny and how it's hurting all of us.
