Wonderful film! Amazing story. Takes you right to the early days of child labor, and miners’ and others’ union struggles in the USA. Do watch over the next couple of days!

Sybilla Masters, a trailblazer of American innovation, left her mark in 1712. She became the first American woman to receive a patent for her groundbreaking corn mill, designed to revolutionize corn processing. Navigating a male-dominated landscape, she traveled to London, fighting for recognition in an era when women’s contributions were often overlooked. Her invention not only eased labor but also birthed new products, altering agricultural practices in the colonies. Sybilla’s legacy would remain nearly silent for years, as she was the only American woman granted a patent until 1793. Her journey reminds us of the untold stories of innovators who shaped our history. 🌽💡

Octavia Estelle Butler with her mother, 1951. This little girl would become the only Sci-Fi writer to receive the MacArthur Fellowship - or 'genius grant' - in 1995 for her work in the genre. Perhaps best known for her 'Patternmaster' (1976) series of books and the novel Kindred (1979).
