  • Lillian Wald (1867 - 1940)
    Lillian Wald (1867 - 1940) Nursing is love in action, and there is no finer manifestation of it than the care of the poor and disabled in their own homes Lillian D. Wald was a nurse, social worker, public health official, teacher, author, editor, publisher, women's rights activist, and the founder of American community nursing. Her unselfish devotion to humanity is recognized around the world and her visionary programs have been widely copied everywhere. She was born on March 10, 1867, in Cincinnati, Ohio, the third of four children born to Max and Minnie Schwartz Wald. The family moved to Rochester, New York, and Wald received her education in private schools there. Her grandparents on both sides were Jewish scholars and rabbis; one of them, grandfather Schwartz, lived with the family for several years and had a great influence on young Lillian. She was a bright student, completing high school when she was only 15. Wald decided to travel, and for six years she toured the globe and during this time she worked briefly as a newspaper reporter. In 1889, she met a young nurse who impressed Wald so much that she decided to study nursing at New York City Hospital. She graduated and, at the age of 22, entered Women's Medical College studying to become a doctor. At the same time, she volunteered to provide nursing services to the immigrants and the poor living on New York's Lower East Side. Visiting pregnant women, the elderly, and the disabled in their homes, Wald came to the conclusion that there was a crisis in need of immediate redress.

    Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Multifaceted Response to the Nineteenth-Century Woman Question amy easton-flake Downloaded from http://direct.mit.edu/tneq/article-pdf/86/1/29/1793865/tneq_a_00256.pdf by guest on 28 September 2021 N the decade following the American Civil War, the I renowned children of Lyman Beecher each took his or her own position along the broad spectrum of debate con- cerning woman suffrage. Henry Ward Beecher served as the first president of the American Woman Suffrage Association (estab. 1869); Isabella Beecher Hooker worked closely with Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony in the National Woman Suffrage Association (estab. 1869); Catharine Beecher helped found the first female-led antisuffrage association, the Anti-Sixteenth Amendment Society (estab. 1870); and Harriet Beecher Stowe, despite pressure from her siblings and other movement leaders and an obvious interest in the issue, re- mained aloof from all organized groups. In the absence of any definitive statement from her, each faction claimed her as an advocate. Between 1870 and 1871, for example, each organi- zation’s journal either listed Stowe as a contributor or quoted from her writings.1 In recent years, literary critics Josephine Donovan and Bar- bara A. White have investigated Stowe’s relation to suffrage 1Stanton listed both Isabella Beecher Hooker and Harriet Beecher Stowe as “prin- cipal contributors” (p. 397)inthe23 December 1869 Revolution, organ of the National Woman Suffrage Association, although Stowe never contributed a single piece of writ- ing to it.

  • Women's History Is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating in Communities
    Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook Prepared by The President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History “Just think of the ideas, the inventions, the social movements that have so dramatically altered our society. Now, many of those movements and ideas we can trace to our own founding, our founding documents: the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. And we can then follow those ideas as they move toward Seneca Falls, where 150 years ago, women struggled to articulate what their rights should be. From women’s struggle to gain the right to vote to gaining the access that we needed in the halls of academia, to pursuing the jobs and business opportunities we were qualified for, to competing on the field of sports, we have seen many breathtaking changes. Whether we know the names of the women who have done these acts because they stand in history, or we see them in the television or the newspaper coverage, we know that for everyone whose name we know there are countless women who are engaged every day in the ordinary, but remarkable, acts of citizenship.” —- Hillary Rodham Clinton, March 15, 1999 Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook prepared by the President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History Commission Co-Chairs: Ann Lewis and Beth Newburger Commission Members: Dr. Johnnetta B.

  • Reform Movements Directions: Use the Content from the Bee in a Box
    Reform Movements As the new nation grew in the early 19th century, many reforms movements developed in an attempt to improve the nation. This web of reform movements originated from a revival of religion, the emergence of the Industrial Revolution, the desire to live up to the ideals of our founding, and the increasing sectional fights between the sections of the country. These varied reform movements helped define the era and gave women, African Americans, and other minorities a voice in a democracy where they didn’t have suffrage. Some reformers saw change in their lifetime. Others like Susan B. Anthony would spend a lifetime fighting and never see they change they envisioned. All of these movements helped push America towards a more equal and just society. Directions: Use the content from the Bee in a Box website to help answer the following questions: PEOPLE Susan B.

  • Dorothea Dix, Superintendent of Nurses: When an Activist Becomes an Administrator
    Volume 2, Issue No. 1. Dorothea Dix, Superintendent of Nurses: When an Activist Becomes an Administrator Emily Galik Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana, USA ÒÏ Abstract: Although the public praised Dorothea Dix’s work as a progressive reformer before the American Civil War, her leadership as the Union Army’s Superintendent of Nurses was privately criticized. Halfway through the conflict Dix effectively fell from prominence, and other Union nurses rose as leaders in the national spotlight. This paper explores why Dix was unsuccessful in this new position, despite her previous professional success, citing her maternalist beliefs about gender propriety, her failure to work effectively with fellow administrative men, and her conflict with her subordinate nurses. By examining Dix’s story, one can see how a woman could spend decades perfecting her navigation of the patriarchal political and social scenes of the mid nineteenth century, and how these curated leadership strategies hindered her success in a new environment. The modern workforce is not the only place where leading women can fail to thrive in a new setting, and hopefully modern women can recognize the timeless warnings posed by Dix’s years as superintendent: years of experience can blind one to the benefits of and need to adapt to a new environment, and new colleagues may take your qualifications gathered in other fields with a grain of salt. Introduction In 1861, US Secretary of War Simon Cameron appointed Dorothea Dix as Superintendent of Nurses for the Union Army despite her lack of experience as a nurse or healthcare administrator (Gollaher 1995). Dix’s reform work followed the Jacksonian Era, which promoted jail and prison as effective institutions of punishment.

  • Shapers of Modern America the WW1 AMERICA MURAL
    Shapers of Modern America THE WW1 AMERICA MURAL Inspired by the expansive Panthéon de la Guerre mural completed by French artists 100 years ago to memorialize World War I, the Minnesota Historical Society commissioned Minneapolis artist David Geister to paint a 30- foot mural depicting individ- ual Americans who helped shape, or were shaped by, the war and who had a hand in the making of modern America. The mural complements the WW1 America exhibit on view at the Minnesota History Center through November 11, 2017. THEN According to art historian Mark Levitch, the Panthéon de la Guerre was the most ambitious World War I memorial. The effort, led by Auguste François­Marie Gorguet and Pierre Carrier­ Belleuse, began in September 1914 and was completed in October 1918. Stretching more than 400 feet in length and depicting nearly 6,000 allied troops, the completed work was viewed by millions of French citizens in a specially constructed building in Paris. In 1927 some US businessmen purchased the panorama and transported it to the United States to be displayed— more as spectacle than somber remembrance— on a 13­ year tour to Chicago, Cleveland, New York, San Francisco, and Wash­ ington, DC. The Great Depression and a second world war overshadowed the work of Gorguet and Carrier­ Belleuse. The artwork was crated and abandoned on a Baltimore loading dock for more than a dozen years. It was not until 1956 that Daniel MacMorris, a Kansas City artist and World War I veteran, secured the deteriorating Panel 1, The War.
