What's Your Point, Honey? Young Women Prepare for Leadership

Films for the Humanities & Sciences (Firm) (Added Author). Films Media Group (Added Author). Thirty-Nine Nine LLC. (Added Author).

Summary: She's out there somewhere. She may be a complete unknown, or she may already be in the public spotlight, but sooner or later the first female president of the United States will emerge. While openly acknowledging today's inequalities, this film puts a new face on America's future by introducing several promising young leaders, all of them women. Viewers learn about an innovative program created by CosmoGirl magazine and the White House Project, designed to encourage young women to pursue management roles and to think of themselves as potential office holders. Interwoven with the stories of these hopeful, ambitious interns are conversations with feminist thinkers and activists from previous generations - including the iconic Gloria Steinem, who reflects on her personal journey as well as the challenges and opportunities girls face today.
