In this program produced by Channel 8 TV, former Boulder City Council member, Janet Roberts, and former council member and mayor, Ruth Correll, talk about their cutting-edge roles as women active in politics in Boulder, particularly during the 1950s through 1970s. Roberts credits the League of Women Voters for arousing her interest in politics and giving her the skills to become only the fourth woman on the Boulder City Council. They discuss issues on which they worked that remain relevant, especially the issues of affordable housing and growth management. They also comment on the relative lack of corruption in Boulder politics compared to that in some eastern cities, and the openness of Boulder to citizen participation. The program also includes commentary by Linda Jourgensen, another former Boulder mayor.
