The LGBTQ movement for civil rights has given rise to related activity in the cultural sphere aimed at recovering the long history of same- sex relationships, understanding the social construction of gender and sexual norms, and documenting the rise of movements for LGBTQ rights in American history.

  • Mary Harriman Rumsey, Beta Epsilon, Founded the First Junior League Chapter in New York in 1901
    March 2011 March has been designated as Women’s History Month. Who are some notable Kappas of whom we should be aware? Mary Harriman Rumsey, Beta Epsilon, founded the first Junior League chapter in New York in 1901. Since its founding, the organization has spread to virtually every large city in the United States. Inspired by a lecture on the settlement movement, Mary, along with several friends, began volunteering at the College Settlement on Rivington Street in New York City's Lower East Side, a large immigrant enclave. Through her work at the College Settlement, Mary became convinced that there was more she could do to help others. Subsequently, Mary and a group of 80 debutantes established the Junior League for the Promotion of Settlement Movements in 1901, while she was still a student at Barnard College. The purpose of the Junior League was to unite interested debutantes in joining the Settlement Movement in New York City. As word of the work of the young Junior League women in New York spread, women throughout the country and beyond formed Junior Leagues in their communities. In time, Leagues would expand their efforts beyond settlement house work to respond to the social, health and educational issues of their respective communities. In 1921, approximately 30 Leagues banded together to form the Association of Junior Leagues of America to provide support to one another. With the creation of the Association, it was Mary who insisted that, although it was important for all Leagues to learn from one another and share best practices, each League was ultimately beholden to their respective community and should thus function to serve that community’s needs.

  • The Ghost in the Machine: Frances Perkins' Refusal to Accept Marginalization
    THE GHOST IN THE MACHINE: FRANCES PERKINS’ REFUSAL TO ACCEPT MARGINALIZATION A THESIS in History Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas city in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS By Patrick French B.A., University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2011 Kansas City, Missouri 2014 © 2014 PATRICK FRENCH ALL RIGHTS RESERVED THE GHOST IN THE MACHINE: FRANCES PERKINS’ REFUSAL TO ACCEPT MARGINALIZATION Patrick French, Candidate for the Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2014 ABSTRACT Frances Perkins was the United States Secretary of Labor from 1933-1945, yet she has received little attention from historians. There are countless works that study President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s years in office, but Perkins’ achievements have yet to enter the mainstream debate of New Deal scholarship. Perkins did not “assist” with the New Deal; she became one of the chief architects of its legislation and a champion of organized labor. Ever mindful of her progressive mentor, Florence Kelley, Perkins stared her reform work at Jane Addams’ Hull House in Chicago. By the end of FDR’s tenure as president, the forty-hour workweek became standard, child labor was abolished, and she was instrumental in the work-relief programs under the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA), the popular Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), and most notably Section 7a of the National Industrial Recovery Administration that allowed for collective bargaining for organized labor. FDR’s controversial appointment marked the first time a female had attained such a powerful position in government, and she wrestled with cross-sections of class, gender, and ethnicity during her tenure as FDR’s Labor Secretary.
