Celebrate Sisterhood! Seize the Day! Women Take to the Streets of NYC
Paper Tiger TV is on the scene to document the events of International Working Women’s Day in New York City. A stark departure from the typical PTTV studio shows, this episode catalogues the major protests and speeches of the highly anticipated International Working Women’s Day of 1990. The Paper Tiger camera covers action all over the city, from marches for women’s healthcare resources at NYU, to protests for reproductive rights in the South Bronx. Touching on women’s struggles from South Africa to Nicaragua and crucial issues like women’s labor rights and wages, HIV education, and military spending, the scope of this video spans far more than just the island of New York City; it crosses borders to unearth the larger and more insidious war against women that has been taking place all over the world.
