Part 4: Marilyn Monroe: A Feminist Icon

This week we bring you the final installment of our Norma Jeane series. This episode is lengthy and filled with a lot of information that can be very upsetting, so we ask that you take breaks while listening if necessary. Extra trigger warning for topics such as suicide, drug use, death, mental abuse, sexual abuse, and medical abuse.
