Mrs. America(2020)
What happened to women helping women?
Mrs. America is a limited series dramatizing the fierce battle over the Equal Rights Amendment during the 1970s. The show follows Phyllis Schlafly, a conservative activist who launched a powerful grassroots campaign against ratification, positioning herself as the voice of traditional values against the feminist movement's push for constitutional equality. As the amendment gained momentum, Schlafly's organized opposition—rooted in concerns about women in combat and traditional family structures—became unexpectedly influential, fracturing the women's movement itself. The series explores how this political clash reshaped American feminism and conservative politics, revealing the complex motivations and personal stakes behind one of the era's most divisive cultural battles. Through multiple perspectives, Mrs. America examines how a single woman's conviction could derail a seemingly inevitable constitutional victory.
