  • Jacqueline Kennedy and the Refashioning of American Cultural Visuality in the Early 1960S
    Wesleyan University The Honors College A Transformation of the First Ladyship: Jacqueline Kennedy and the Refashioning of American Cultural Visuality in the Early 1960s by Maria Nicole Massad Class of 2016 A thesis submitted to the faculty of Wesleyan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts with Departmental Honors in History Middletown, Connecticut April 12, 2016 Acknowledgements Before I begin my analysis of Jacqueline Kennedy’s First Ladyship, I want to thank several people without whom their guidance this project might never have been possible. First, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my thesis advisor, Professor Patricia Hill. I owe so much to your wisdom, good judgment, and enthusiasm for my project. You helped me better articulate my ideas and strengthen my writing into a more cohesive argument. Your direction and support have been invaluable, and I sincerely thank you for your mentorship. To my academic advisor, Professor Ronald Schatz, who has cheered me on throughout my career as a student of history at Wesleyan University and ardently encouraged my decision to write a thesis. I am so grateful that I chose to take your “20th Century U.S. History” course; after all, it planted the seed of inquiry in my mind to investigate the impact of American culture during the 1960s. To Lauren Noyes and the staff of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, I thank you for assisting with my research endeavors in the archives this past summer. If not for your help, this project would not have come to fruition.

  • Public Spaces of the White House
    Classroom Resource Packet Public Spaces of the White House INTRODUCTION Thousands of people visit the White House every year. During public tours, visitors walk through rooms that have been used by presidents and their families for over two centuries. Years ago, curious guests could knock on the front door of the White House and ask to see inside. Today, visitors wait weeks or even months to gain access for a tour of the President’s House. Discover the history and different uses of the public spaces that are part of the public tour of the White House. CONTEXTUAL ESSAY In recent years, visitors pass through the East Wing to enter the main part of the White House on the Ground Floor. Until 1902, the Ground Floor was primarily a basement area that housed kitchens, a furnace room, and storage (Image 1). Today, the finished space contains several public rooms that hold important artifacts of American history (Image 2). One of the first rooms that visitors see is the Library. This was first created as a private library for President Franklin Roosevelt in 1935 (Image 3). The China Room, once a cloakroom, now displays examples of china and glassware from nearly every presidential administration (Image 4). The full-length portrait of First Lady Grace Coolidge inspired the red decorations of the room. Portraits of other first ladies hang in the Vermeil Room, which contains the White House collection of gilded silver, or vermeil, giving the room its name (Image 5). Image 3 From the Ground Floor, visitors walk upstairs to the State Floor.

  • Black History Month Brochure
    IN RECOGNITION OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH AT THE WHITE HOUSE PRESIDENT AND MRS. MICHELLE OBAMA WELCOME YOU TO THE WHITE HOUSE "GOVERNMENT CANNOT ENDURE PERMANENTLY HALF SLAVE, HALF FREE..." were the words uttered by President Abraham Lincoln in 1858 during his famous “House Divided” speech in Illinois. These profound words foreshadowed a growing unrest simmering throughout the country and, in the years that followed, a devastating civil war would bring an end to the institution of slavery and forever alter the American landscape. For this year’s celebration of Black History Month, the works on display showcase a snapshot of the contributions of African Americans. The two photographs and one painting displayed on the East Landing in the East Wing of the White House powerfully illustrate the arc of progress, from the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, to the urgent push for equality during the civil rights movement, to the present day. The photographs on display along the remainder of the tour highlight legendary African Americans – many of whom were pioneers who paved the way for future generations – that have visited presidents in the White House. In the Oval Office on January 18, 2010, President Barack Obama unveiled an 1864 printed copy of the Emancipation Proclamation signed by President Abraham Lincoln. This featured copy was used to raise money for a Civil War charity supporting wounded Federal troops. Official White House photo by Pete Souza. The First Reading of the Emancipation Proclamation Before the Cabinet. While staying at the White House in 1864, artist Francis B. Carpenter painted a scene of President Abraham Lincoln introducing the Emancipation Proclamation to his Cabinet in 1862 (now hanging in the U.S.
