The women who covered Vietnam



                 Forgotten female war correspondets

I've read an article about female war journalists and photographers from the Vietnam War that have been forgotten for many years. Now their stories are  brought back to life. In the article they mention for example how hard it was for them be heard and apprieciated. During that time it wasn't uncommon that the observations those women made were stolen later on by some other journalists and their work seemed to be completely underestimated and pointless. Now it's time their stories will be heard all around the world. In 2018 the production of the upcoming film "On the other side" will begin. The movie will tell the story of a war correspondent, Kate Webb.

I'm very curious about the stories of these women because I think they will be very interesting and moving and I hope they will influence the way we think about the different roles that women get to play in our society. I'm looking forward to find out more about this topic.

  1. This time let's focus on language. You wrote: "it's time their stories will be heard", while it should be either "It's time FOR their stories TO BE heard" or "It's time their stories WERE heard."
