Al Sutton, M.D.
December 7, 1933 – October 20, 2022
“Misogyny, in my belief, is the hostile, emotional underbelly of man’s resistance to accepting women’s equality. A man may vote correctly, share in the household chores and maintain a tokenism of being a fair mate; but if he does not examine his deepest feelings, he will not be free of the hostility that fuels gender inequality.”
Filmmaker, feminist, physician, producer, musician.
