Feminist Files
Activist Pauli Murray said that all you needed to start a revolution is a typewriter… And a lot of guts. This is the story of how Title IX came to pass and how the women behind the scenes in Washington, D.C. created the academic sex revolution. The nerdy revolutionaries: Bunny Sandler, Patsy T. Mink, Edith Green, and Pauli Murray, among others—women who left behind clues about their lives, not just what they achieved, but how they did it, and who they were, little pieces that we pick up and find along the way. The Feminist Files is a series that digs down into the nitty-gritty of change and mobilization: how it actually happened, how women organized and how the opposition organized against them. The blood, sweat, and tears of that movement. The revolution which led in 1972 to the passage of Title IX: 37 words that changed the world. Host Leigh Fondakowski and an all-star cast led by Jodie Foster and Samira Wiley, dig deep into the archives to uncover and reveal the secret origin of Title IX.

What a remarkable story, and I just love how the past and the present come together. It’s so relevant - I had no idea. I didn’t really understand what Title IX was before this. I love that this wasn’t just a straight history podcast - I mean, those are great, but also predictable. This was a unique and special way to tell the story. And Jodie Foster is amazing.
Amazing!!

So very much I didn’t know and it left me wanting to know more! Someone has got to make a movie about Pauli Murray’s life starring Samira Wiley.!
Totally engaging storytelling

There’s so much I did not know about Title IX - like, EVERYTHING. It’s incredible to listen to both this story of activism AS WELL AS how stories like this get made…there’s insider info about how documentarians and dramatists create, which adds a whole addition layer of story on top of this critical piece of mostly unknown history. This is the perfect podcast to listen to especially right now - because despite all the odds and everything against them, they got it done. They made the world different. We’re at another crossroads, and there’s a lot to learn from this story about how we do what we need to do to go where we need to go now. Jody Foster, Margo Hall, and Mercedes Ferrero are AMAZING.
Revolutionary

This is an archeological discovery, metaphorically speaking. If you love History and see how it lives in the present moment, you will love this. Fantastic storytelling-vivid imagery and enthralling character-building.
