In August of 2021, Liz Pahl and filmmaking partner Andie Walla finished their documentary film series, Legacy: Women of Southeast Ohio. The films highlight the incredible accomplishments of four Southeastern Ohio women who have dedicated their lives to community action, activism, teaching and social justice. The films aim to empower women and girls to use their strengths and talents to make a difference in this world.
The documentary showcases the lives of four incredible women: Ada Woodson Adams, Former President of the Multicultural Genealogical Center in Chesterhill, Ohio, an organization that documents, preserves and shares the stories of Black, Native American and other underrepresented Americans in our region; Dr. Francine Childs, Professor Emerita, first Black Full Professor and the first and only woman to chair the Department of African Studies at Ohio University; Dr. Dru Riley Evarts, Professor Emerita and first woman tenured in the Ohio University Journalism School, and Carol Kuhre, Fiber Artist and founder/former Executive Director of the grassroots community organization advocating for issues around social, environmental and economic justice: Rural Action.
