Sisters of '77: How Far Have We Come?

Sisters of '77 is a documentary film about the 1977 National Women's Conference. At the height of "second wave" feminism, the energy and enthusiasm of the movement is clear. Many famous feminists of the 60s/70s appear and are heard in this film.

Note: unfortunately, the online version of this video trailer is no longer available, and the above link no longer works.

Review:
A great way to introduce or recall the history of "second wave" feminism -- and ask the question, "How far have we come?" from that point.
