Dreams of Equality is a documentary drama that chronicles the early struggles of the Women's Rights Movement and personalizes them through an exchange of letters between a sister and brother. History comes to life as dramatic recreations of the First Women's Rights Convention, held in 1848, and other historical events are combined with contemporary segments in which young people engage in candid exchanges about the roles of men and women. Issues of political equality, traditional women's roles, marital finances and educational opportunities for girls are proven to still be as relevant today - 160 years later. In the AT&T Auditorium.
A film by Allen Mondell & Cynthia Salzman Mondell (27 minutes)
