Embraced abroad, yet hated at home, Golda Meir is one of Israel’s most controversial and influential prime ministers. A feminist icon who rejected feminism, her legacy is one of contradictions and touches on some of the most contentious issues that Israeli and Diaspora Zionism face today. How can Golda Meir’s story better inform us about our present political moment?
