niemand is sterker dan een vrouw die zich bewust is van haar waarde en de moed heeft om ervoor op te komen

“She’s Beautiful When She’s Angry” is a great documentary about the women’s liberation struggle of the 60s and 70s in the US and the fight for women’s rights in general as well as specific issues like childcare, abortion rights and equal pay.
It not only makes great use of fantastic archival material, but also highlights the incredible importance of intersectionality, the formation of groups and organizations, collective action and eduction as well as the transformation of frustration, dissatisfaction and anger into all of that. I loved to see how much power and validation these women got out of talking to each other alone.
As I’m kinda obsessed with the political era and climate of the 60s and 70s in general, this obviously really hit for me. But even beyond that, I think the feminist struggles of that time and the way they not only challenged the societal status-quo but also other leftist/radical/liberation movements and organizations, confronted them with their misogyny in contrast to their radical revolutionary beliefs and managed to weave together such a broad spectrum of talking-points, perspectives, experiences and issues is really impressive and inspiring.
On the downside, hearing them talk about the incredible achievement Roe v Wade was is kinda devastating from our perspective. Just like with “The Janes” (phenomenal documentary btw, huge recommendation), it really pains to see how strong of a grip regressive and reactionary forces still have on all of us. Abortion rights are healthcare and women’s bodies are their own fucking choice! You're a man against abortions? Get a vasectomy!
