Meaningful Movies screens ‘Resisterhood' documentary

Posted

The latest offering of the Meaningful Movies Project is a free online screening of the new documentary “Resisterhood.”

The presentation is planned for 6 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27.

A special panel discussion featuring the filmmaker, Cheryl Jacobs Crim, and several women from the movie will take place afterward.

In the years since the 2016 election, event officials said, Americans have resisted and persisted. 

“We flooded the streets and packed the airports. We spoke up at town halls and sat down in Congressional offices. We stood for human rights and for each other. We raised our voices and we voted. Through it all, RESISTERHOOD was there.”

The documentary captures the stories of everyday Americans who became grassroots activists working to defend democracy and stop the erosion of civil rights.

“RESISTERHOOD showcases the wave that brought us the most ethnically, racially and gender diverse Congress in history,” officials said. “It shares stories of hope that will re-energize the movement and inspire even more people to join the fight to secure a bright future for our country.”

The film is 96 minutes long.
