Madeleine Albright, the first woman to serve as U.S. secretary of state, died Wednesday at the age of 84.
As the world learned after midday Wednesday of the death at 84 of former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, some of her more noteworthy past remarks were being shared on cable news and online.
The following year, stipulating that she took great care with her use of the terms fascism and fascist, she explained that the then-president did not, to her mind, qualify, as “he isn’t violent.” On Jan. 6, 2021, she tweeted that, given her own biography, she knew democracy was not necessarily self-sustaining and yet was unprepared for that day’s events. Still, “I believe in the resilience of democracy and eagerly await the arrival of new national leadership.”
Backing Hillary Clinton, Albright’s fellow former secretary of state and Wellesley alumna, for the presidency in 2016, Albright opined that “there’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help each other.”
