Film Screening and Discussion: Suffragette

In this galvanizing feminist drama, a working-class laundress (Carey Mulligan) in 19th century London becomes radicalized when she meets a brave cadre of women organizing to obtain the vote. A panel of students, faculty, and staff will follow to discuss how the women’s rights movement looked different across race and socioeconomic status as well as exploring how the fight for women’s rights looks different in current times.
