America's New Female Right. by McVerry, Alana,film director.; BBC Studios (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by BBC Studios in 2024.In America, a new wave of young women are championing extreme views on social media, including content that is increasingly shocking and – surprisingly – antifeminist. Journalist Layla Wright travels from her home town in Liverpool to meet the young women at the forefront of a new movement on the political right who use highly inflammatory language. Immersing herself in a growing online community of influencers, podcasters and creators who see themselves as on the front line of a war against progressive politics, Layla seeks to find out what is driving women her own age to share extreme and often offensive content to their followers on social media. In Nashville, she spends time with 16-year-old Hannah, an ambitious rising star on the right. Homeschooled and brought up in a traditional patriarchal household led by her former pastor father, she is expected to be a wife and mother first. Layla also meets 24-year-old Morgonn in Arizona, a conservative influencer who has risen to prominence by posting content which is critical of feminism and the LGBTQ+ movement. Plus Layla travels to the US-Mexico border to meet Christie, who makes regular missions to confront migrants illegally crossing into the country and live-streams her findings to her followers. With the online realm having increasing influence in the real world, Layla attempts to understand why these women are promoting an ideology that is looking to roll back the clock on hard-earned rights.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Be My Baby A Memoir [electronic resource] : by Spector, Ronnie.aut; Waldron, Vince.; Richards, Keith.; cloudLibrary;
“Do I have to tell you that Ronnie’s got one of the greatest female rock-and-roll voices of all time? She stands alone.” —Keith Richards Be My Baby is the behind-the-scenes story—newly updated, and with an especially timely message—of how the original bad girl of rock and roll, Ronnie Spector, survived marriage to a monster and carved out a space for herself amid the chaos of the 1960s music scene and beyond. Ronnie’s first collaboration with producer Phil Spector, “Be My Baby,” shot Ronnie and the Ronettes to stardom. No one sounded like Ronnie, with her alluring blend of innocence and knowing, but her voice would soon be silenced as Spector sequestered her behind electric gates, guard dogs, and barbed wire. It took everything Ronnie had to escape her prisonlike marriage and wrest back control of her life, her music, and her legacy. And as shown in this edition, which includes a 2021 postscript from Ronnie, her life became proof that our challenges do not define us and there is always the potential to forge a fuller life. In Be My Baby, the incomparable Ronnie Spector offered a whirlwind account of the ever-shifting path of an iconic artist. And, more than anything else, she gave us an inspiring tale of triumph.General adult.
