The Fort Bayard Historic Preservation Society is pleased to announce the resumption of its Thursday night film series, beginning on September 30, at the Santa Clara Armory, at 7 p.m.  

The series is entitled “From Stanton to Brockovich: The Struggle for Women’s Equality”, and will feature movies and documentaries every Thursday evening from September 30 through November 18. Admission is free, donations are  appreciated. Concessions will be available. It is requested that those in attendance please wear masks.  

Each film will be introduced by a member of the FBHPS, and discussion will follow. The series traces the role of courageous women in bringing about hard won advances in the struggle for equality for women, beginning in the early 19th century,  first with the achievement of voting rights, then moving into other realms of social  justice, including civil rights, workplace reform, and environmental concerns.
