Happy Birthday, Carol Gilligan! May your celebration be filled with laughter and joy—after all, you've spent decades reminding us that voices matter. Your groundbreaking work "In a Different Voice" didn't just change psychology textbooks; it gave feminism an entirely new tune to hum along.From founding the Difference Feminism movement to inspiring countless students as professor extraordinaire, you’ve shown us how powerful listening can truly be. Here's hoping this birthday brings cake that's sweet enough—and conversations deep enough—to honor someone who taught the world there's always room for another voice at the table (especially if it's yours!).
