  • "This documentary provides an historical overview of woman's struggle for equality. Beginning with a commentary on the inferior position of women in the early 1800's, this chronicle proceeds with a description of the fight for education, the plight of female factory workers, and the subsequent attempts at labor organizing. It traces the relationship of the first feminists with the Abolitionists and delineates the contributions of Black women, both slave and free-born. Detailing the battles of the Suffragettes, the film also examines "the feminine mystique" of the 1950's and charts the participation of women in the civil rights movement, Vietnam anti-war demonstrations, and women's liberation. Old engravings, photographs, newsreels and archival footage further illustrate the varied social, economic and cultural experiences of women through history."
  • "Traces the history of women's liberation in the United States, from the beginning of the 19th century, when women occupied a limited and inferior position in society, up to the present day, when many are discovering their strength and establishing a new identity. Using graphics, still photographs and archival film material, it highlights notable women and their contributions to the women's rights movement, and touches upon a wide range of social, political and economic issues, from the campaign for voting rights to the feminist movement in perspective. Much of the commentary consists of quotes from contemporary writings. Focuses on the manipulation of women as a marginal labor force during and after World War II and the rebirth of the feminine mystique in the 1950s. The Civil Rights Movement, the anti-war movement and the increasing number of economically independent women are seen as factors in today's Women's Liberation Movement."@en
