Some American Feminists
A film by Luce Guilbeault, Nicole Brossard and Margaret Wescott
Canada, 1980, 56 minutes, Color, VHS/DVD
Order No. W99370
SOME AMERICAN FEMINISTS explores one of the most significant social histories of this century-the second wave of the women's movement-and is a fascinating flashback on the women's liberation agenda in the light of 1990s backlash. Inspirational interviews with Ti-Grace Atkinson, Rita Mae Brown, Betty Freidan, Margo Jefferson, Lila Karp and Kate Millett are intercut with newsreel footage of the tumultuous sixties and early seventies. Produced by the National Film Board of Canada, Some American Feminists is critical viewing for all those interested in women's studies, history and social studies.
QUOTES

"Few films cover so much ground in explaining this significant contemporary social phenomenon... useful for an in-depth study of women's liberation."
