North Country


Last night I saw the movie North Country, which a fictionalized account of the first major successful sexual harassment case in the United States -- Jenson vs. Eveleth Mines, where a woman who endured a range of abuse while working as a miner filed and won the landmark 1984 lawsuit. Definitely an excellent movie and worth going to the theater to see. I went to the movie's website and found Stand Up and campaign to end sexual harassment and domestic violence, which was inspired by the movie. Check it out if you get a chance.
