The Motherhood Manifesto
This film looks at the challenges facing working mothers in America and offers a variety of ideas for solving them. The film is based on the book by the same name by MoveOn.org founder Joan Blades and co-author Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner. Moving personal stories combined with humorous animation, expert commentary and hilarious old film clips tell the tale of what happens to working mothers and families in America and how enlightened employers and public policy can make paid family leave, flexible working hours, part-time parity, universal healthcare, excellent childcare, after-school programs, and realistic living wages a reality for American families.
