Feminism女权主义演讲稿.docx

Feminism 袁 Good morning, everyone. It’s my honor to stand here to give a presentation to you all. As you know, recently, Hillary Clinton has just announced that she would campaign for 2016 president of America. So that we find out the status of women in politics increased significantly.
