Upon finding a written biography of pioneering women's rights activist Elizabeth Cady Stanton, film producers Paul Barnes and Ken Burns (director of "The Civil War") were shocked and outraged that her story -- which is also that of Stanton's longtime friend and political partner Susan B. Anthony -- had been almost entirely omitted from their history courses. So together they began work on Not For Ourselves Alone: the story of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, a groundbreaking look at one of the greatest untold chapters in American history. Over a span of more than fifty years, Stanton and Anthony struggled ceaselessly to organize a movement for basic rights that would not be won until after their deaths. Their story is the story of freedom fighters everywhere, complete with tragedies, triumphs, and unconquerable hope -- but it is also the story of two passionate and talented women, whose close friendship sustained them in times of loneliness and despair. An unforgettably personal, inside look at the birth of the modern women's movement, this film is at once a study of where we have been and a profound reflection upon who and where we still are. Ideal for classroom and educational use. Sarah Welsh, Rovi

I loved this documentary so much that I made a pilgrimage to Seneca Falls, NY to look at the locations for myself. It's amazing to learn that this history happened not that long ago. The world changes very fast. I recommend this documentary for any age, in or out of a classroom setting. It's a wonderful tool for teachers. Beautiful photographs and writing, interesting insight comments by intelligent scholars. The only flaw is the music, it's very repetitive and bland.
But overall a "must see" for anyone who has any interest in history and the changes in women's rights.
