Running
in High Heels, the movie
"It's
hard to take women seriously. I think anybody who's got a five-point
majority and still doesn't control the agenda might be spending a
little too much time reading about how to get a man over his fear of
commitment."
-
Bruno Gianelli, the
West Wing
FACT:
Women are
52% of the population and have had the right to vote for 85 years but
are only 14% of the Congress.
How is this possible?
Running
in High Heels explores how well
women support each other in a world that doesn't support
women.
By
following the story of one young woman's campaign bid
for State Senate audiences see what lack of mentorship and
connectedness can
do to women and how women must avoid competing against each other
instead of
cooperating with each
other.
Running
also features a variety of notable
authors and
political figures such as Heidi Hartmann from the Insitute for Women's
Policy Reseach (from the left) and Phyllis Schlafly (from the
right).
