ABOUT THE FILM

"The 19th*, a digital news start-up was named after the 19th Amendment which gave women the right to vote, but with an asterisk to acknowledge the Black women and women of color who were omitted, the 19th's work is guided everyday by the asterisk - asking who is being omitted from the story, and how can they be included. The film documents the honest discussions at The 19th* around race and gender equity, revealing that change doesn't come easy, and showcasing how one newsroom confronts these challenges both as a workplace and in their journalism."
