Dear friend:****

** **

On Monday, August 15th at 9pm EST/PST, HBO Documentary Films will premiere a
new documentary Gloria Steinem: In Her Own Words.  Rarely does such a
feminist occasion come along and the Women's Media
Center<http://www.womensmediacenter.com/> which
Gloria co-founded six years ago is using the film as an opportunity to
launch an intergenerational discussion about the future of feminism.  Gloria
uses the film as a rallying cry and asks people to use "their own voices" to
plot the next 40 years of feminism.  Check out the
trailer<http://youtu.be/UKH82mvjhyg>

else who might be interested in the film and the
