In her 2016 speech conceding the presidential election to Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton talked about the “glass ceiling” women encounter in society. She wasn’t talking about a dome over our planet.
But Clinton wasn’t talking about this theory in her 2016 speech.was first used by workplace advocate Marilyn Loden at a women’s business conference in 1978, and it became a metaphor for the struggles women encounter as they try to progress in their careers.
Loden spoke about how her company had tapped her to explore why more women weren’t entering management positions, the Washington Postin 2018, and"she had gathered enough data that she felt confident the problem extended beyond what her colleagues were wearing or saying." The paper quoted Loden saying that"it seemed to me there was invisible barrier to advancement that people didn't recognize" — the"glass ceiling."
Clinton’s comments right before the moment in the Instagram clip enforce that this is what she was talking about, not a glass dome over the Earth. "To all the women and especially the young women who put their faith in this campaign and in me," Clinton said."I want you to know that nothing has made me prouder than to be your champion."
