Shaking it Up: The Life and Times of Liz Carpenter tells the inspiring story of a trailblazing Texan who helped shape some of the most vivid moments and movements of the 20th Century.
Journalist, White House official, political activist, and feminist leader: Carpenter was often front and center where history was unfolding leaving her own indelible mark on events and people. Shaking it Up: The Life and Times of Liz Carpenter shows how her expansive personality, political know-how, and legendary wit gave her an outsized impact on historical events — from the JFK assassination to the launch of Great Society programs to leadership roles in the National Women's Political Caucus, and the fight for the Equal Rights Amendment. Directors Christy Carpenter and Abby Ginzberg weave candid modern-day interviews with Dan Rather, Bill Moyers, Gloria Steinem, Luci Johnson, and more, with archival footage that reveals Liz’s enduring legacy of “shaking things up” in the battle for equal rights and human progress.
