Through the captivating individual voices of the people who lived it, <em>The Movement</em> tells the intimate inside story of what it felt like to be at the forefront of the modern feminist crusade when women rejected thousands of years of custom and demanded the freedom to be who they wanted and needed to be.<br><br>This engaging history traces women’s awakening, organizing, and agitating between 1963 and 1973 when a decentralized collection of people and events coalesced to create a spontaneous combustion. From Betty Friedan’s <em>The Feminine Mystique</em> to the underground abortion network the Janes, to Shirley Chisholm’s presidential campaign and Billie Jean King’s 1973 battle of the sexes, Bingham artfully weaves together the fragments of that explosion person by person, bringing to life the emotions of this personal, cultural, and political revolution. Artists and politicians, athletes and lawyers, Black and white, <em>The Movement </em>brings readers into the rooms where these women insisted on being treated as first-class citizens and, in the process, changed the fabric of American life.</p><p><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary/68887" target="_blank">Register</a> for this enlightening talk.<br></p><p><br></p><p><img src="/images/eLibrary/LSC/LSC-3.26_%20Weiner_web.jpg" alt="" style="margin:5px;" /> </p><h3><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary/69375" target="_blank">Dreams We Chase: An Author Talk with Novelist Jennifer Weiner</a><br></h3><p><strong>Wednesday, March 26</strong><br></p><p>You’re invited to a glimmering conversation with New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner as we chat about the signature emotional depth of her books that have been inspiring readers toward self-discovery for decades.

But as the Lord Chamberlain’s mistress, she has access to all theaters in England and finds a way to secretly bring her work to the stage. And yet, creating some of the world’s greatest dramatic masterpieces comes at great cost: by paying a man for the use of his name, she will write her own out of history.</p><p>In the present, playwright Melina Green has just written a new work inspired by the life of her Elizabethan ancestor Emilia Bassano. Although the challenges are different four hundred years later, the playing field is still not level for women in theater. Would Melina—like Emilia—be willing to forfeit her credit as author, just for a chance to see her work performed?</p><p>Told in intertwining narratives, <em>By Any Other Name</em> is a sweeping tale of ambition, courage, and desire that asks what price each woman is willing to pay to see their work live on—even if it means they will be forgotten. <br></p><p><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary/70748" target="_blank">Register now</a> to join the wondrous conversation! </p><p><strong><br></strong></p><h3 style="text-align:center;"><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary" target="_blank">Learn more and view all upcoming events.</a><br></h3><p><br></p></div> | library-speakers-consortium | |
