“Speak your mind - even if your voice shakes, for well-aimed slingshots can topple giants.” – Maggie Kuhn, 1905-1995

Free and open to the public. Discussion to follow.

"MAGGIE GROWLS is a documentary film portrait by Barbara Attie and Janet Goldwater of the amazing, canny, lusty, charming and unstoppable Maggie Kuhn (1905-1995), who founded the Gray Panthers in 1970 after being forced to retire from a job she loved. Her outrage and determination fueled a political chain reaction that forever changed the lives of older Americans, repealing mandatory retirement laws and proving that "old" is not a dirty word... Maggie created one of the most potent social movements of the century - one that was committed to justice, peace and fairness to all, regardless of age."
