New Netflix Gloria Allred Documentary: Seeing Allred. As A Fierce Trauma Advocate, Gloria Shares Her Personal Rape Trauma & Resulting Illegal Abortion

Mary Giuliani 2/10/187:32 AM

This new Netflix Documentary about radical feminist, civil rights & trauma advocate, Gloria Allred was truly mind blowing. I never knew that Allred’s personal rape trauma and resulting illegal abortion that almost killed her was in part what contributed to imbuing her fierceness as a young lawyer to began advocating for landmark pieces of legislation like the ERA. This documentary features fantastic television clips from as far back as the 60's showing tiny Gloria, with her drastically short haircut, blinking and smiling sardonically through men telling her to shut up and laughing at her—then showing her fighting back & shouting over them. Now with the #MeToo and #TimesUp movement, I believe it's Gloria who is having the last laugh.
