Hello! My name is Dana Glazer and I’m making a feature documentary film, titled The Evolution of Dad, which explores in a deep way the role of fatherhood – how it has evolved up to now, where it is presently and how it continues to change. The film promises to be entertaining, insightful and profound.

Ice Cream and Consciousness-Raising

When I first read about momsrising.org and learned that they’d produced a film version of their book, The Motherhood Manifesto, I knew I wanted to write a column about the documentary. What better movie, after all, for a mama at the movies, than one expressly focused on the situation of mothers in this country today? I ordered the film via momsrising.org and drafted my column. But something was missing. This is a consciousness-raising movie, an organizing tool. Watching it by myself, I was missing a critical component of the film’s intent.

Wish you got to go to the screening in DC? Watch it now!

Politics TV is running video of the remarks made by Senator Hilary Clinton, Senator Barak Obama, Senator Chris Dodd, and Senator Ted Kennedy at last week's Capitol Hill screening of The Motherhood Manifesto documentary. It is amazing to watch these clips and to hear how personally the Senators talk about the importance of MomsRising.org, the MotherHood Manifesto, and the issues surrounding motherhood and family life that we all care so deeply about. (Senator Obama is especially moving.) Plus, you get to see our lovely Joan and Kristin too!
