Gloria Steinem HBO special

<p>Since Gloria's an alumna and her name was mentioned in another thread, I thought I'd ask start this thread because both my D and I found it strange that no mention was made in the film of Gloria's association with the College. One would think that her Smith experience helped influence and form her ideas on equality issues. The film just skipped over that whole part of her life. Any thoughts/ideas?</p>

<p>Well, there was brief mention at the beginning about how college when she attended was about preparing to be the wife of an executive, but yes, sadly little smith talk. I mean, it was a brief documentary, only a little over an hour I think? With a lot to cover. I really enjoyed the parts about Bella Abzug, and I found her observations about Betty Friedan to be really interesting. Who knew there was such strain between the two of them?</p>
