...details perfectionism, is in the midst of injecting it with a large dose of the upper-crust life-style that is Martha Stewart living. In a joint venture with K Mart, Stewart has launched a signature paint (with Sherwin-Williams) and home collection: Martha Stewart Everyday, the first salvo in an all-out assault on K Mart's style sensibility. If Stewart has her way (and she usually does), America will soon be changing its sheets the Martha...
With fascinating, evocative imagery, Mehta makes this a film about much more than lesbianism or even Indian patriarchy.

Determined to air "race secrets," she takes a sledgehammer to black men, holding them accountable for most of the "everyday violence" that hounds black women into silence. Nelson is at her rousing best in her vivisection of the 1995 Million Man March, to which, she complains, women were not invited, "as if black women remaining in the community and quietly taking care of business while the men are elsewhere is anything new." Though Nelson argues convincingly that black women need to raise...
