Thought this was really good, educational too for me. From what I've read it's pretty accurate to events - when you're making a historical drama about intellectuals and activists, you have the advantage that they all wrote a lot down. There was criticism from Steinem and others that it overplayed Schlafly's importance - STOP ERA didn't kill the ERA, men did - but idk it was clear we were only seeing a slice of events, e.g. the president and his staff was clearly doing a lot of other stuff in the 364+ days each year they weren't on screen engaging with the women's movement.
Loved spending time with all those amazing people - Flo Kennedy should have had her own episode too.
Also found this contemporary account from the NYT interesting, even if it hits a weird snarky tone in parts: https://www.nytimes.com/1977/12/25/archives/that-week-in-houston-it-was-said-that-the-womens-movement-was-in-a.html
