Following 30 pre-screenings throughout the US, Baptist Women in Ministry (BWIM) has released their new documentary, Midwives of a Movement, for free, on-demand viewing via YouTube. You can access it here.

From BWIM's social media post, upon the film's release in November 2023:

"The feature documentary film chronicles the stories of the women who boldly birthed a movement to seek greater visibility and opportunities for women in the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). Despite great opposition, their courage blazed pathways for advancing women in ministry and leadership among Baptists.

But challenging religious patriarchy, and specifically Baptist patriarchy, is not only a subject of the past. It is as relevant today as it was forty years ago.

In this film, audiences today will find heartfelt stories, painful anecdotes, profound insights, and lighthearted remembrances which will inspire continued confrontation of patriarchy and advocacy efforts to that women find equality and equity among Baptists."
