Celebrating the Women’s Liberation Movement
March 15, 2025
As part of our celebration of Women’s History, we watched a documentary about the origins of the modern women’s liberation movement. She’s Beautiful When She’s Angry is an excellent source on thee various challenges that women faced as second class citizens in society and the steps taken to make change toward a more just society.
It not only exposed the students to this period in American history but also on how movements get started often with small numbers of people who have the courage and vision to stand up. After watching the film, the students commented on the impact it had on them and how the struggle for equality is an ongoing challenge.
