Summary:  The excerpt on gender equality is from a PBS documentary on the various struggles for equality in the US (start 3:50; end 11:50).  It documents a struggle over the Equal Rights Amendment showing women that both support and reject the idea.  Set in the 1970s, it captures part of the struggle for gender equality that most students take for granted today, thereby demonstrating the spirit of the early feminist movement.
