DESCRIPTION:ANSWER Film Series Double Feature - an International Women’s Day 
 Celebration   with a report on the origins of Women’s Day   $5 donation  
 "With Babies and Banners" The victory of the Great General Motors Sit Down 
 Strike in Flint, Michigan in 1937 was key to the success of the CIO’s 
 drive for industrial unionism. This film presents the untold story of the 
 women – the working women, wives, mothers and sisters – who became the 
 backbone of the strike. Forty years later, nine of these women reunite and 
 dramatically show the relevance of their experience for working men and 
 women today. 45m, 1978.  "You Have Struck A Rock!" This film commemorates 
 the special contribution of South African women to the success of the 
 anti-apartheid struggle. It recovers the remarkable “women’s 
 campaigns” of the 1950’s against the hated pass system. Leaders in the 
 movement recall this struggle and their imprisonment and banning. Yet they 
 remain undaunted, demonstrating the South African proverb: “When you have 
 touched a woman you have struck a rock.” 28m, 1981.    \n
