Feminist documentaries you need to see right now:
1. RBG: A documentary about the magnificent supreme court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, her life and impact on women’s rights in America. (She basically carried us on her backs for decades without any sort of acknowledgement, so we at least owe it to her to watch her documentary) You can find it on HULU.
2. She’s Beautiful When She’s Angry: A documentary about some of the most iconic women in the feminist movement from the 60’s-80’s. Very personable and emotional. You can find it on NETFLIX.
3. Seeing Allred: A documentary about Gloria Allred, a powerful attorney known for representing victims in high-profile sexual assault cases (like Bill Cosby’s case) as well as gender discrimination cases. She’s been called insane by anti-feminists for decades, but they’re also scared of her. Very cool. You can watch it on NETFLIX.
4. 12th & Delaware: A documentary following an abortion clinic and crisis pregnancy center located on the same corner in Florida. Honestly, this had me on the edge of my seat. It’s very gut-wrenching to see how far the anti-abortion protestors go to stop women seeking care, and how far the abortion clinic will go to help those women. One of my favorite movies. You can find it on HBO, HBONOW.
5. Reversing Roe: A documentary on the dwindling abortion and reproductive rights in the United States. Fair warning: it’ll give you [more] nightmares about our current political state. You can check it out on NETFLIX.
