Monica Lewinsky is a name that I will forever remember, but honestly, not for the reason you think. I don’t really care what she did with Bill Clinton, that’s her business. What I will remember her for is the fact that I always thought that she got a bad wrap and was made a villain when she wasn’t one.
She was a young woman and unfortunately will be a part of the history books for reasons that she shouldn’t be.
But to me, I see her as strong, fearless, relentless, and the epitome of perseverance. I don’t think I could survive the scrutiny that she went through.
Her story, has been made into a mini series.
“Impeachment: American Crime Story is a limited series examining the national crisis that led to the first impeachment of a U.S. President in over a century. It tells this story through the eyes of the women at the center of the events: Monica Lewinsky (Beanie Feldstein), Linda Tripp (Sarah Paulson) and Paula Jones (Annaleigh Ashford). All three were thrust into the public spotlight during a time of corrosive partisan rancor, shifting sexual politics and a changing media landscape. The series shows how power lifts some and disposes of others in the halls of our most sacred institutions.”
Impeachment: American Crime Story franchise stars Beanie Feldstein, Edie Falco, and Clive Owen. The show will premiere on FX, September 7th.
