Interspersed between celebrities describing landmark events, there is archival film, two major film essays narrated by Marlo Thomas (one on the Vermont state ERA campaign and one on Title IX), a monologue by lily Tomlin, a stirring speech by NOW's president, Eleanor Smeal, and she musical numbers accompanied by a 31-piece orchestra conducted by Peter Matz, including: "Miss Celie's Blues" performed by Mariette Hartley "I Am Woman" performed by Helen Reddy "Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves" performed by Mara Getz & Alaina Reed "All Girl Band" performed by Edie Adams, Alaina Reed, Jackee Harry Medley of "girl" songs performed by the NOW Broadway Chorus "Together We Can Make The Dream Come True" performed by Melissa Manchester written especially for the snow by Ms. Manchesur and_ Carol Bayer Sager THE CAST: * ALAN ALDA * JANE ALEXANDER * EVE ARDEN * BEA ARTHUR * ED\.JARD ASNER * RENE AUBERJONOIS * TAl BABILONIA * DRE\.J BARRYMORE * ALLYCE BEASLEY * POLL Y BERGEN * BARBARA BOSSON * GEORG STANFORD BRO\.JN * YVONNE B.

Clinton 853-260! Brinq a dish to pass Message from the President Ann Cawley The NOW-NYS conference last weekend was a great success -- over 400 people attended, making it the best attended conference in NOW-NYS's history. The conference had a clear political agenda, implementation of the recommendations of the "Report of the New York Task Force on Women in the Courts." The report detailed pervasive discrimination against women throughout the court system, including women litigators, attorneys and court employees. There was much support from the New York City legal community for our efforts to rectify this situation, and the result was a very dynamic conference, with experts from across the state assembled to assess what progress has been made in the year since the report was published and what still needs to be done. The national conference in Philadelphia also looks like it will be exciting and invigorating. Not only does it come in the wake of the Congressonal meeting to celebrate the anniversary of the Constitution, but it will also include election of national NOW officers. There will be a rally on July 18 -- the " March for Equality " -- to raise the issue of women's equality and to decry the lack of an Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution. This conference will be a historic one , and it is the closest to us geographically in some years, so I urge all those who can to participate. The chapter has reserved space at the conference hotel, the Wyndham Franklin Plaza Hotel. Please call me at 732-3215 if you 're interested in going to Philadelphia for al l or part of the conference on Jul y 17, 18, and 19, or leave a message with the chapter answering service at 736-5748. State President Connell to Challenge Smeal NOW-NYS President Noreen Connell will challenge incumbent National NOW President Eleanor Smeal in the elections to be held at the National NOW Conference July 17-19 in Philadelphia . Connell is running because, in her words, "I am convinced that NOW can be far more effective in winning real victories to improve women 's lives. I have proposed the Women's Economic Bill of Rights as the focus of a long-range strategy to counter the single worst inequity facing women today-- economic discrimination." She also wants to make changes in the role of the national office . "National NOW should mean more to members than the return address on fundraising appeals. I will build the national office into a resource center and clearinghouse for state organizations and chapters so we can share -- and learn from -- the extraordinary accomplishments of NOW activists and our sister organizations nationwide." Connell was elected as NOW-NYS President in 1984 and reelected without significant opposition in 1986. Major accomplishments as state President include starting eight new chapters, reinvigorating NOW's lobbying in Albany with a focused legislative agenda, establishing statewide action plans on priority issues, and initiating the Lesbian Rights Project to build broad-ba~ed community support for lesbian and gay civil rights legislation. .

  • Historicizing the “End of Men”: the Politics of Reaction(S)
    HISTORICIZING THE “END OF MEN”: THE POLITICS OF REACTION(S) ∗ SERENA MAYERI In fact, the most distinctive change is probably the emergence of an American matriarchy, where the younger men especially are unmoored, and closer than at any other time in history to being obsolete . – Hanna Rosin1 In 1965 a Labor Department official named Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote a report entitled The Negro Family: The Case for National Action (the Moynihan Report), intended only for internal Johnson Administration use but quickly leaked to the press.2 Designed to motivate the President and his deputies to launch massive federal employment and anti-poverty initiatives directed at impoverished African Americans, Moynihan’s report inadvertently sparked a sometimes vitriolic debate that reverberated through the next half century of social policy.3 Characterized as everything from a “subtle racist”4 to a “prescient”5 prophet, Moynihan and his assessment of black urban family life have been endlessly analyzed, vilified, and rehabilitated by commentators in the years since his report identified a “tangle of pathology” that threatened the welfare and stability of poor African American communities.6 At the center of the “pathology” Moynihan lamented was a “matriarchal” family structure characterized by “illegitimate” births, welfare dependency, and juvenile ∗ Professor of Law and History, University of Pennsylvania Law School.

  • Media Narratives and Possibilities for Teachers' Embodied Concepts of Self
    Available online at www.jmle.org The National Association for Media Literacy Education’s Journal of Media Literacy Education 4:2 (2012) 149-158 Media Narratives and Possibilities for Teachers’ Embodied Concepts of Self Jane S. Townsend School of Teaching and Learning, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USA Patrick A. Ryan School of Education and Human Services, Mount St. Mary’s University, Emmitsburg, MD, USA Abstract Non-print media of radio, television, and film tell narratives about the image and practice of teachers, but how might these media narratives shape conceptions of teachers as well as teachers’ conceptions of themselves? What elements of the media narratives do we incorporate and reject in the narratives that we construct about their professional identities? How do these media and personal narratives interact with larger social narratives, such as the purposes for schools and gender role expectations? We take a historical view of the shaping power of media narratives and the contexts in which they flourished by looking to past depictions of teachers in radio, television, and film. Keywords: teacher image, popular media, narrative analysis, ideological frames, audience reception “We are shaped according to the habit of spectacle.” rests on their ability to offer sufficient coherence within (Fleckenstein 2003, 55) our ideological frames. Because of the evolving social, In reviewing trends in media literacy cultural, and historical contexts in which we create education, Martens (2010) emphasizes helping K-12 narratives as well as our own individual sense of self, students analyze mass media texts, with some scholarly these texts are often revised as new information is discussion about higher education contexts.

  • Dear Friends, Do You Have Any Special 4Th of July
    Dear friends, Do you have any special 4th of July memories? We certainly would love to be able to come visit and hear some of those stories in person. But, alas; this doggone quarantine is still upon us. And that means swapping stories over coffee and “When Swing Was King” shows will have to wait just a bit longer. In the meantime, we have yet another in our “anti-boredom” packets for you. And, if I’m counting right, this is Number 18 in the series which we created to help relieve the boredom, to engage your mind and memories, to lift your spirits, and to remind you that you are in our ongoing thoughts and prayers. But before we get going, let me start with a few 4th of July jokes some of the kids I know passed along to me. 1) Joey: My brother swallowed a box of firecrackers. Jane: Is he all right now? Joe: I don’t know. We haven’t heard the last report. 2) Teacher: Tommy, can you tell us just where the Declaration of Independence was signed? Tommy: Yes, ma’am. At the bottom. 3) Question: How come there's no Knock Knock joke about America? Answer: Because freedom rings. 4) Question: How is a healthy person like the United States? Answer: They both have good constitutions! 5) Question: What would you say if everyone in the U.S. sneezed at the same time? Answer: “God bless America!” 1 Multiple Choice Questions 6) What two famous singers appeared in both the films High Society and 1) Who was Batman’s young Robin and the 7 Hoods? crime-fighting partner?
