Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Distributed by Bullfrog Films, PO Box 149, Oley, PA 19547; 800-543-FROG (3764)Produced by Jane Dawson Shang and Tandiwe NjobeDirected by Kate Geis2024, Streaming, 87 mins The United Nations has published their Sustainable Development Goals. Goal 5 is to achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls. This film shows what can happen when you empower women. The best way to do that is through education. These young women were raised in South Africa under the apartheid system. They received scholarships to attend Smith College, a private liberal arts women’s college in Massachusetts. This scholarship program began in the late 1980’s as South Africa was seriously beginning to change (apartheid ended in 1994). The women speak openly about their experiences. They talk about the differences that they encountered - everything from New England winters to people who were not afraid to speak their minds. Their experiences made them question things that they had considered normal all their lives. However, they also held events to help them keep in touch with their home culture and to share it with other students. The film begins with 30 minutes of examination of life under apartheid and the South African struggle for freedom. It is interesting and engaging using a combination of archival photos and news video. The entire film flows smoothly and should easily hold the attention of viewers. You are also likely to notice some similarities with today’s news stories such as student protestors insisting that a college divest itself of all investments in an unpopular country (South Africa, then; Israel, now). This film could be useful in many different classes including Gender Studies, African Studies, and History. I recommend this film because it makes a clear and engaging case for the power of education to change both individual lives and the world. Many of these women had been told as children that education was the way out of poverty and apartheid. Education gives you options and opportunities. Some went home after college to be part of the change. Some stayed in the U.S. The experience was not easy but, as one put it, you have to have a willingness to be uncomfortable.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.
