This exciting time of change in the lives ofMaryland women is reflected in the title of Women's History Resource Packet 2000, Maryland Women: Paving The Way To The New Millennium. The Maryland women highlighted in this packet reveal motivating stories from diverse backgrounds and occupations. They are extraordinary role models for the women leaders of the next millennium, some of whom also are included in this packet. These young women are becoming role models in their own right, although many are in high school or college. The purpose of this packet is to recognize representative women of achievement and to ensure teachers have the necessary tools to illustrate the extensiveleadership and community involvement of Maryland women. In addition, pupils will be given the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned about exceptional Maryland women through short essays, poetry and the visual arts. I invite all students in the great State of Maryland to participate in this special Women's History Month activity and to receive recognition for their efforts. Please join me in celebrating remarkable Maryland women. Begin your adventure by reading Maryland Women: Paving The Way To The New Millennium. Then, I urge you to continue using it as a valuable resource throughout the year to honor and celebrate women's contributions in shaping what undoubtedly will be our glorious future. Sincerely, Frances Hughes Glendening GOVERNMENT HOUSE ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND 21401 Dom EL Do -iz 96-i6 OM DODO KIT USAGE Schools, organizations, and libraries are encouraged touse this display kit throughout the year, but particularly during March, Women's History Month. The kitcan be used in conjunction with other activities andas a motivational tool to encourage additional research on the contributions of diverse Marylandwomen to all areas of society. MARYLAND WOMEN WHO DARE: PAVING THE WAY TO THE NEWMILLENIUM INTRODUCTION Far too often the advances of individual women or groupsof women are celebrated without recognition of the vision, strategies, and sacrifices ofthe countless women ...who have made advances for these women possible. Eleanor Smeal, Women's Rights Leader As we begin the 21St century we honor Maryland womenfrom diverse backgrounds who have paved the way in many fields for others to follow. Inaddition, we recognize the leadership of young women who are makingcontributions today as they pave the way for future generations. The women profiled in this resource kit represent untoldnumbers of women of all ages who continue to work throughout Maryland to build a bettersociety. While this resource kit highlights only contemporary women,it is important for students and community members to also reflect on the contributionsof historical Maryland women who dared by serving in the past as pioneers, innovators,and role models. Most of these women remain unsung heroines, receiving neither recognition oracclaim for their daily efforts which have shaped our world and paved new paths for women.Some Maryland women, such as the ones listed below, have hadtheir accomplishments chronicled. It is hoped thatstudents and organizations will not only honor famous women but willalso identify and celebrate the ground- breaking "unsung" work of women in their owncommunities. WOMEN WHO DARED From aviation to astrophysics, from business tobuilding, from education to entertainment, from farming to fishing, from music to medicine, fromlegislating to law enforcement, from sports to science, from trades to technology - in every field womenof past generations have opened doors, overcome obstacles, and clearedpaths for younger women to follow. They, in turn, havehad supporters, role models, and mentors, both menand women, who encouraged them to dream, to decide, and to dare. We recall and honor the contributions of representativeMaryland women who dared from past centuries, such as: Piscataway womenleaders, decision makers, and transmitters of culturalheritage in their matriarchal society as long as 12,000 years ago Margaret Brentattorney, landowner, businesswoman andcolonial policy-maker who in 1648 went before the Maryland General Assemblydemanding the right to vote 1 Mary.

  • Our Kind of People: Social Status and Class Awareness in Post -Reconstruction African American Fiction
    OUR KIND OF PEOPLE: SOCIAL STATUS AND CLASS AWARENESS IN POST -RECONSTRUCTION AFRICAN AMERICAN FICTION Andreá N. Williams A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: William L. Andrews Reader: James W. Coleman Reader: Philip F. Gura Reader: Trudier Harris Reader: Jane F. Thrailkill © 2006 Andreá N. Williams ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT ANDREÁ N. WILLIAMS: Our Kind of People: Social Status and Class Awareness in Post -Reconstruction African American Fiction (Under the dir ection of William L. Andrews) Postbellum African American fiction provides an index to the complex attitudes toward social status and class divisions that arose within post -Civil War black communities. As I argue, African American narratives in the last quarter of the nineteenth century encode the discourse of class in discussions of respectability, labor, and discrimination. Conceiving of class as a concept that does not necessarily denote economic conditions, both well -known and largely ignored narrativ es of the period emphasize moral and ideological parameters for judging social distinctions. Writers theorize whether intraracial class stratification thwarts black sociopolitical advancement, fracturing black communities from within, or conversely, foster s racial uplift led by the black “better class.” Though the fiction variably delineates social classes, each of the texts under study in Our Kind of People imagines classification as an inevitable and useful means of reforming the turn -of-the-century Ameri can social order. Subverting the class disparity spurred by Gilded Age materialism, Frances E.
