One small act...

You can help bring Seneca Falls into more hearts and minds on PBS!

Call your local PBS station this week to see if they plan to air Seneca Falls. Last year, 110 stations broadcast the film.

To find your station(s), type your zip code into this PBS Station Finder. With lots of enthusiasm, send them to our site to view the trailer and see the 2010 PBS broadcast schedule. And tell them you will promote the film among your networks.

Stations can contact louise@senecafallsfilm.org with any needs, and if you find out a broadcast date, please let us know!

California to mandate teaching women's history?

In Seneca Falls,17-year-old Annie tells us, "knowing your history gives you courage." Yet the majority of schools in the U.S. still don't teach about the women's rights movement that began there.

But good news! At our suggestion, the California Women Suffrage Centennial Committee is seeking a legislator to sponsor a bill requiring teaching women's history in the state's schools. If they succeed, California will join Illinois, Florida, and Louisiana – states that have passed laws requiring teaching women’s history in K–12 classrooms.
