From politics to pop culture, 2017 has been a historic year for women. Brit + Co's Cortney Clift joins us to discuss the media company's "Year in Women" feature. It tells the story of the most memorable women and moments from this far-from-ordinary year.
Clift explains how Brit + Co is telling these incredible stories through a mix of video, text, and images. We look back at some of the individuals who made strides in 2017. The writer and Special Projects Editor sheds light on why Issa Rae, Senator Kamala Harris, Ava DuVernay, and others are the faces of this "year of the woman."
We also take a look at the moments that stood out most over the year. The Women's March in Washington D.C., one day after President Trump's inauguration, kicked off a wave of memorable political and pop culture events. Among these: the success of "Wonder Woman," the first black "Bachelorette," and the #MeToo movement, which shows no signs of slowing down soon.
