Description: This excerpt from the documentary film Passing the Torch sheds light on what may be a forgotten or unknown fight in the women's movement - the importance of a woman being able to get credit in her own name. While this may be taken for granted now, these Michigan women explain their work, and the battles they fought, so that women could establish their own credit, despite their marital status, and how they established the First Feminist Federal Credit Union.
