00:01There were things we had to write about in order to change them.

00:06Something very profound was happening.

00:09We're not just a magazine.

00:12We're a whole social movement.

00:14The main mission of Ms. Magazine was to change the rules

00:17about marriage, sisterhood, sexuality.

00:20A lot of these articles could still be relevant.

00:24Women's magazines mostly did beauty articles.

00:27Women's interests are much more than how to make meatloaf 12 new ways.

00:32Do you agree with this women's liberation movement?

00:34No, I don't.

00:35It scares a lot of people.

01:24What I saw was a magazine that learned and evolved.

01:28Here's the thing that Ms. is important for.

01:31We women need to challenge each other.

01:34We need to do the work.

01:36Do the work.
