Also, why is she Fearless Girl?

Fearless Girl was commissioned by State Street Global Advisors (SSGA), a large asset management company, to advertise for an index fund that comprises gender-diverse companies that have a relatively high percentage of women among their senior leadership. A plaque originally placed below the statue stated: "Know the power of women in leadership. SHE makes a difference," with "SHE" being both a descriptive pronoun and the fund's NASDAQ ticker symbol.

Because a corporate grift that makes vague gestures at feminism without actually doing anything materially feminist is the kinda thing that Warren's supporters could really get behind.
