She's been an enthusiastic amateur cook and baker ever since her parents bought her a Cuisinart for her bat mitzvah in the 1970s.Their current film is called JULIA. The film tells the remarkable story of the groundbreaking cookbook author and television superstar who forever changed the way Americans think about food, about television, and even about women.Using a treasure trove of never-before-seen archival video, personal still photos, first-person narratives, and cutting-edge, mouth-watering food cinematography, the documentary will trace Julia Child's surprising path, from her struggles to create and publish the revolutionary ‘instant' classic Mastering the Art of French Cooking (1961, Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group), to her empowering personal story of a woman in her 50s, finding her calling as an unlikely television sensation.This is the first feature-length documentary solely devoted to Julia Child, and will illuminate her casual upheaval of the male-dominated culinary and television worlds.Almost single-handedly, Julia Child upended the mythology that women could not hold their own at the highest levels of creative gastronomy, and that the only women Americans wanted to see on TV were young, submissive, and conventionally beautiful.JULIA is produced with the full cooperation of Julia Child's friends, family, and the Julia Child Foundation.  It follows the highly-acclaimed documentary, RBG, executive produced by CNN Films, directed and produced by West and Cohen through their company Storyville Films, and edited by Carla Gutierrez, who will also edit JULIA.The film comes out Nov 12 in-theatres NY/LA followed by nationwide expansion.In this episode we not only discuss the making of Julia and RBG but also cover how they approach documentary, the craft of tell stories and much more.Enjoy my conversation with Betsy West & Julie Cohen.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

In this week's study, I continue in Chapter 18 with verses 14 to 19. Before I get into the study, I talk about House Speaker Mike Johnson and how he sold his soul to the devil. I inform the listeners who is political advisor Dan Ziegler is and his connections to the global elite through the lobbyist group of Williams and Jenson. Then I talk about the new 2024 Quarter with Dr. Pauli Murray's inscription on the backside. In our study this morning, The world's traders express their sad feelings at the loss of Babylon, the greatest city. Their attention at this time is entirely on the objects that they themselves traded with the city. The desire to own such things was all that the traders considered worthwhile in life. After the loss of the city, only despair remains. 14           And the fruits that thy soul lusted after = Literally, “the fruits of the desire of thy soul.” The word rendered “fruits” - ὀπώρα  op-ō-rah - properly means, “late summer; dog-days,” the time when Sirius, or the Dog-star, is predominant.Dainty = lip-ar-os' From λιπος lipos (grease); fat, that is, (figuratively) sumptuous: - dainty. Goodly = lam-pros' ; radiant; by analogy limpid; figuratively magnificent or sumptuous (in appearance) Departed = manuscripts read perishedThe reaction of the traders to the loss of Babylon is very similar to the reaction of the kings (verses 9-10). John continues to describe the event as if it were the funeral of a great queen. The world's kings were like her lovers, who joined her in wrong sex acts. The world's traders made themselves rich when they supplied the luxury of her palace. Now the queen is dead. Her greatness, the luxury of her life, and her evil acts have all ended. There can never be another queen like her. So the traders and the kings alike weep bitterly. 15   The merchants of these things = Who wheeled and dealed in these things, and who supplied the city with them, verse 11.Which = who Which were made rich by her = By wheeling and dealing with her. Shall stand afar off = verse10  For fear of her torment = Struck with terror by her torment, so that they did not dare to approach her, verse 10.Wailing = Greek ‘mourning' I find it interesting here. The focus of their weeping and of their mourning is not over the millions who will perish in that city.  It is not over even their own impending doom and the destiny of their souls. But it is over the loss of potential wealth.  It is amazing, isn't it? This is truly the character, the picture of an idolater. Satan knows the foolishness of our hearts. He is the father of lies. He is the typical deceiver.  Think about it. He is the one who could go to Adam and Eve and present a lie to them that is much unlikely, the idea that if you eat of the fruit, you shall be as gods. And yet they fell for it. Now, these were not stupid people.  How could they fall for it?  Certainly not because it is believable, not because it is reasonable, and it is credible and it is compelling. No, they fell for it because it was appealing to their flesh. Remember, they thought, oh, it is good for food, pleasant to the eyes, to be desired to make one wise. The third groups of people who express their sad feelings at the loss of Babylon are the seamen. They supplied Babylon with the rich and beautiful things that the traders sold. For the seamen, as for the traders, Babylon was therefore the source of great profits. Join me as we go Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Unraveling the Words of Yahweh! Have any questions?

February is black history month, an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans, and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history and, importantly, in the women's equality movement. African American women have too often been overlooked in the history of our fight for gender equity. This episode honors and quotes many brilliant, brave, black women who fought to create a fairer and more equitable world. These words have tremendous power and impact including the important work of Kimberlé Crenshaw who coined the phrase intersectionality. Crenshaw simply and poignantly said, "If we aren't intersectional, some of us, the most vulnerable, are going to fall through the cracks." This is at the heart of Together We Rise, bringing to the forefront that we must consider all women when we talk about advancing women. As Audra Lord said, “I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own.” #tunein and celebrate #blackhistorymonth and honor the insights of so many brilliant black women including Sojourner Truth, Shirley Chisholm, Bell Hooks, Pauli Murray, Kimberlé Crenshaw, Rebecca Walker, Audre Lorde, Angela Davis, Dr. Maya Angelou, and more!

At the Third National Conference of Commissions on the Status of Women, a group of women, led by writer Betty Friedan and organizer and attorney Pauli Murray, decided that to make progress they needed to form an independent national civil rights organization for women. Within months, the National Organization for Women had 300 founding members, a slate of officers, and a statement of purpose. By 1974, NOW boasted 40,000 members in over 700 chapters, and today NOW claims hundreds of thousands of members in all 50 states and DC, working toward equal rights for women and girls.

Have you ever stopped to consider why the United States doesn't have an Equal Rights Amendment? Today's guest, Julie Suk, law professor and author, paints a compelling portrait of the 100-year battle for equal rights. Drawing from her profound books, We the Women, and After Misogyny: How the Law Fails Women and What to Do About It, we embark on an enlightening journey through the turbulent history of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) and the power of collective female action.A key figure in our conversation is Liz Holtzman, the woman who challenged the stagnation of the ERA. We chart the inspiring stories of trailblazing women such as Abigail Adams and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and discuss the potential implications of late ERA ratifications, the politics behind the seven-year deadline, and the current interpretation of the ERA by the Supreme Court. Furthermore, we tackle how the lack of childcare and maternity leave contributes to ongoing gender inequality. As we navigate this complex terrain, Julie introduces the fascinating concept of an equal power model. Unlike the anti-discrimination model, this alternative has propelled women's empowerment on a global scale. We examine the potential impact of the ERA and the pioneering work of figures like Pauli Murray and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who have made strides in pushing forward the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause. This episode is a rich tapestry of history, law, and feminist theory that will leave you hungry for more.

When Academy Award®-nominated, Emmy®-winning filmmaker Julie Cohen (“RBG”, “My Name is Pauli Murray”) came across the NBC News archival footage of sexologist John Money and his patient David Reimer, she knew that this story had legs. But what she couldn't have anticipated is that this dark chapter in the history of gender identity would lead her toward what ultimately became her groundbreaking new documentary “Every Body” – a major new film about Intersex people.   Making her third visit to Top Docs (but her first without frequent filmmaking partner Betsy West), Julie joins Ken to discuss her celebration of people who identify as the “I” in LGBTQIA+. Who was John Money and why was his work on gender identity so consequential — and harmful? How did she connect with the three film's main participants, River Gallo, Alicia Roth Weigel and Sean Saifa Wall, and why did she choose to center the film around their stories? And in what ways are these three activists now leading the fight against unnecessary surgeries? With its focus on Intersex people and their long overdue fight for justice, “Every Body” is a film that “everybody” can and should embrace.   Released by Focus Features, “Every Body” is now in theaters everywhere.   Hidden Gem: “Hidden Letters”   Follow: @filmmakerjulie on Instagram and twitter @topdocspod on Instagram and twitter   The Presenting Sponsor of "Top Docs" is Netflix.

So far, 27 people in the state have been indicted in connection with the effort to overturn the 2020 election on January 6th. No body of legislators has fought more fiercely to maintain Republican supermajority power in a demographically 50/50 state. On April 28, 2023, in a rare reversal of recent precedent, the new Republican majority on the North Carolina Supreme Court struck down a previous ruling that threw out gerrymandered voting maps. And in this term, the Supreme Court will decide on Moore v Harper, a case that could give state lawmakers unchecked power over how elections are held — and even who gets to vote. In this episode, Laura Flanders sits down with the NC Attorney General Josh Stein and Hilary Harris Klein, lead attorney on the North Carolina case along with veteran civil rights attorney and law professor, Irving L. Joyner to discuss what these cases mean for democracy and voters of color. What does a better vision of democracy look like? Durham is home to the Pauli Murray Center for History and Social Justice, named after the human rights activist whose work was integral to the Civil Rights Movement. Murray's legacy lives on today, inspiring organizers who are determined to "bring the promise of democracy to life," as Angela M. Thorpe, the center's Executive Director, puts it. Serena Sebring, the Executive Director of Blueprint NC, shares what's needed to build Murray's vision of a multiracial democracy. What's at stake? And who's pushing back? “North Carolinians do not want this gerrymandering . . . What the legislatures are trying to do here is not the people's business. It is their own political entrenchment.” - Hilary Harris Klein“You had 30 African Americans in the North Carolina General Assembly and all of that came crashing down in 2010 with the election of Republicans . . . Their first order of business was to attack the success that we had had in building up African American political power.” - Irving L. Joyner“It's not just Raleigh, it's not just Charlotte. It's not even just Durham that matters, but it is Columbus County, it is Pasquotank Country. It is all of the people of North Carolina who must be welcomed into a democracy, if it is to be what it says it is.” - Serena Sebring“This legislature has been elected time and time again under unconstitutional maps . . . It's not a surprise they have these powers, because that's what they've done, is manipulate [voting maps] to their advantage.” - Josh Stein“I think Pauli Murray would be incredibly concerned with the way legislatures and states across the US are working to strip people, particularly Black people, of their voting rights.” - Angela M.

February is black history month, an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans, and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. African American women have too often been overlooked in the history of our fight for gender equity. The struggle against racism, sexism, and all other-isms. All must be addressed simultaneously. This episode honors and quotes many brilliant, brave, black women who fought and fight, to create a fairer and more equitable world. Don't miss this episode with the wisdom and inspiration of so many brilliant black women who have provided so much wisdom. These words have tremendous power and impact like the important work of Kimberlé Crenshaw who coined the phrase intersectionality. Crenshaw simply and poignantly said, "If we aren't intersectional, some of us, the most vulnerable, are going to fall through the cracks." This is at the heart of together we rise, bringing to the forefront that we must consider layers of oppression when we talk about advancing ALL women. As Audra Lord said, “I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own.” Celebrate black history month and honor the many insights of so many brilliant black women including Sojourner Truth, Shirley Chisholm, Bell Hooks, Pauli Murray, Kimberlé Crenshaw, Audre Lorde, Angela Davis, Dr. Maya Angelou and more!   References: Hooks, B.

Happy New Year. It's so good to be back with you. Often on At Liberty, we detail what is happening in the field of civil rights and public interest law, from an issue perspective. This week we're doing something a little different. We're highlighting the people behind that work, specifically the contributions of women and non-binary people to the movement of resistance law. Women weren't always allowed to be lawyers. In fact, in 1873, the U.S. Supreme Court said that women had no constitutional right to practice law. Thanks to women who fought back, that is no longer our reality. And actually, it's quite the opposite. Women are now seen, celebrated and remembered at the highest levels of the practice. This advancement is due to the work of hidden figures throughout history, like Pauli Murray, for example, who you'll hear more about today. We're sharing a conversation between two women lawyers. ACLU's very own senior staff attorney, Gillian Thomas, is in conversation with Dahlia Lithwick, legal journalist and author of the new book Lady Justice. Together, they discuss Dahlia's new book that traces the history of women in law and highlights the work of women lawyers, most notably since 2016, who've taken up the mantle to fight back against injustice that oppresses the most marginalized and threatens all of us. Dahlia argues that in a constitutional democracy, like our own power is for the taking and that women have heeded that call and stepped into their arena to fight.
