Directed and produced by Linda Briskin and Lorna Weir, Canada, 1981/1992
Originally made in 1981, Rising Up Strong was updated in 1992 through the inclusion of an additional segment on the changes — many as a direct outcome of feminist organizing — which had taken place in the intervening decade. In 2013, Rising up Strong stands as an historical reflection on women’s organizing and a tribute to continuing struggles.
