This bonus episode of Looking Back, Moving Forward features Ms. consulting editor Carmen Rios in conversation with Peabody award-winning documentary filmmaker Yoruba Richen, whose latest documentary short, FREE JOAN LITTLE, tells the incredible story of the first U.S. woman ever acquitted for using deadly force to resist sexual assault—and the coalition movement in support of Little that connected the Black Power, feminist, and prison justice movements.
The documentary, which premiered this month at DOC NYC, was produced in partnership with Retro Report, an independent nonprofit documentary newsroom. This conversation explores Richen's journey to bringing Little’s history to the screen—and the urgency of telling her story at this particular moment in time.
