Dystopia? But the girls are stronger!!!

I 100% should not be blogging right now as I have piles of work all around me. But, alas, here I am. I wanted to check-in on the amazing Louise and see what was new. Then I edited all the spelling errors in my last blog (oops). But then I think I edited too much because it seems to have disapeared (double oops). So instead of getting back to work, I thought I would fill the void. So here goes:



I spent a good deal of time in the car today, traveling around to different meetings. And… Continue

Secrets and Tubes

It was late at night and I was sitting on my then-fiance's chestnut colored leather sofa in our rental house in East Lake, a neighborhood in Atlanta, cozied up in between one of our dogs and my cat. We were watching Seneca Falls and I wasn't prepared for the emotions that this film conjured up in me. Tears streamed down my face throughout the film.

Events

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. 

Passing the torch...
