The Susan B Anthony Advisory Board held a special screening of Susie Rivo’s award-winning documentary Left on Pearl in honor of Women’s History Month!
Left on Pearl is a 55-minute documentary about a highly significant but little-known event in the history of the women’s liberation movement, the 1971 takeover and occupation of a Harvard University-owned building by hundreds of Boston area women. The 10-day occupation of 888 Memorial Drive by women demanding a Women’s Center and low-income housing for the community in which the building stood, embodied within it many of the hopes, triumphs, conflicts, and tensions of Second Wave feminism.
We held a talk with several students who learnt about legal careers, internships, and the law school application process from our director, Professor Catherine Cerulli, J.D., Ph.D.!
