Vivian Rothstein was a founder of the Chicago Women's
Liberation Union. In this short clip from the PBS documentary
Young Blood, she talks about her early involvement with
the Civil Rights Movement and how it shaped her life. Many of
the pioneers of women's liberation had experience in the Civil
Rights Movement.
Young
Blood is from the Baby Boom Collection of the People's
Century series and focuses on the 1960's. The "Baby
Boom" collection focuses on the period of world history
after 1945. The entire "People's Century" covers most
of the 20th century. We give this series a high recommendation.
