Sisters of '77: How Far Have We Come?Play this trailer

Sisters of '77 is a documentary film about a 1977 women's conference of the National Organization for Women. 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.

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.
