You're invited to the screening of the documentary, "Makers: The Women Who Make America"

Thanks to the generosity of Gina Dalma and the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, we have the opportunity to screen the PBS documentary "Makers: The Women Who Make America" on Wednesday, May 29th, from 2:00 - 5:00 PM at their offices, 2440 West El Camino Real, Suite 300, Mountain View.

The three-hour documentary tells the remarkable story of the most sweeping social revolution in American history, as women have asserted their rights to a full and fair share of political power, economic opportunity, and personal autonomy. It’s a revolution that has unfolded in public and private, in courts and Congress, in the boardroom and the bedroom, changing not only what the world expects from women, but what women expect from themselves. MAKERS brings this story to life with priceless archival treasures and poignant, often funny interviews with those who led the fight, those who opposed it, and those first generations to benefit from its success. Trailblazing women like Hillary Rodham Clinton, Ellen DeGeneres and Oprah Winfrey share their memories, as do countless women who challenged the status quo in industries from coal-mining to medicine. Makers captures with music, humor, and the voices of the women who lived through these turbulent times the dizzying joy, aching frustration and ultimate triumph of a movement that turned America upside-down.
