Arkansas Quote by Beth Ditto

“I have a lot of feminist idols. My favorite thing about growing up in Arkansas - well, not favorite but something I've always felt grateful for - was that I really had to dig for what I could. There was no Internet. There wasn't tons of feminist literature floating around.” quote by Beth Ditto — Download Open image
