BC Voices invites you to
A New Historical Documentary
In
Marriage, Partnering & Singlehood:
Know Your Rights
The unfolding story of bold American women fighting for over 200 years for the financial independence, political power and sexual autonomy to gain the freedom to decide whether, when and with whom to partner or marry, or, leave without shame, and, what’s at risk, today.
Gather with others online…
Explore the history of women’s fight for the right to autonomy in personal relationships, from the drastic legal restrictions at the founding of the US to expanded choices in singlehood, partnering and marriage by the early 1980s to marriage equality in 2015 to the reactionary forces in today’s political climate.

What viewers have said...
Comprehensive. Could feel the cohesiveness of the arc. So diverse - race, financial, sexual expression. Felt richness and depth of the journey ... diverse life experiences of women.
It was only last night that I realized how all-inclusive this final film really is. It ties all the others together. Monumental.
I found the event stimulating and the documentary very informative. I didn't know half of what I heard, and I appreciated how you wove together the struggles of so many different groups... I think this is a vital documentary...
