Indignation

According to Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, indignation is identified as a noun. It means “anger aroused by something unjust, unworthy, or mean”. In the article, “The Boys at the Back”, the last paragraph states, “Where was the indignation when men dominated higher education, decade after decade”. The word indignation is used to explain how people don’t give enough credit to men now compared to the past. Instead of looking down on them now, it’s telling us we should have equal credit.
