Have you seen this?

I just became aware of this series. Makers. I watched the women of space episode early this morning. It was enjoyable.

Have you seen any past or current episodes? What are your thoughts? I want my nieces and god children to watch it. But how do I start that conversation without looking like "just another tired old feminist?"

Love, Peace and the Righteous Fight.

Also finding this is the second season. Damn.

! Snip
2013, we made the documentary that told the story of the women’s movement for the first time. Now, we’re going further. In 2014, MAKERS, in partnership with PBS, will release six new documentaries that focus on specific areas where women have truly blazed trails and served as groundbreakers in their fields. 

We will tell the known and unknown stories of women and war, space, comedy, business, Hollywood and politics with threads and insights that will help shape your view on the contributions from women in some of the most historic moments for both our country and our world.

Find out more about the 2014 documentaries here.
