Ballot & Beyond September 7, 2020 28 New Episodes of the “Ballot & Beyond” Podcast Researched and Recorded by Maryland Women’s Heritage Center Volunteers BALTIMORE (September 7, 2020) - The Maryland Women’s Heritage Center (MWHC) is thrilled to announce its collaboration with Preservation Maryland in the making of a new season of “Ballot & Beyond” podcasts. Available now for streaming and reading on www.ballotandbeyond.org, “Ballot & Beyond” Season Two is a multi- media public history exhibit and podcast offering audio biographies of 28 valiant Maryland women, written and recorded by MWHC volunteers. The featured women include Maryland suffragists, MWHC’s research focus during this 2020 Year of the Woman. Also recorded are profiles of many women recognized by the Maryland Women’s Hall of Fame for their significant contributions to causes including freedom, justice, and equality. They represent Maryland’s diverse cultures, and locales from the rural Eastern shore, to the mountains of Garrett County, to the streets of Baltimore. Some podcast subjects are familiar, such as Harriet Tubman, Clara Barton, Henrietta Lacks, and Senator Verda Welcome. Others have been newly uncovered as MWHC’s statewide network of researchers combed archives, diaries, family records, old newspaper clippings, suffrage histories, and museum collections. The contributing voices heard on “Ballot & Beyond” are as distinguished and diverse as the biographies. They include a descendant of Baltimore suffragist and Jewish civic leader Sadie Jacobs Crockin; Morgan State University’s archivist; Howard County’s first and only female county executive; and noted scholars of women’s suffrage and Maryland history. Each story is the product of hours of research by MWHC’s dedicated team of historians, research volunteers, and writers. Their valuable and continuing effort has produced highway markers on the National Votes for Women Trail; a traveling exhibit of Maryland suffragists’ biographies (available to schools and organizations); articles for the MWHC website; and entries to a national online biographical dictionary of women’s suffrage. Season Two of “Ballot & Beyond” was made possible by a Heritage Fund grant from the Maryland Historical Trust through Preservation Maryland. “This partnership with Preservation Maryland affords us the opportunity to publicly share significant research expanding the body of knowledge about Maryland women and their valiant roles in the historic fight to achieve the right to vote,” said Diana M. Bailey, MWHC Executive Director. “Podcasts are an essential way to share Maryland women’s stories for posterity, using technology as a public history tool.” The contributing researchers and podcast readers include Dr. Diane Weaver, Dr. Amy Rosenkrans, Dr. Pamela Young, Dr. Jean Baker, Dr. Tina Sheller, Allison Weiss, Dr. Ida Jones, Jean Thompson, Kathi Santora, Diana M. Bailey, Audrey Partington, Kalin Thomas, Christine Valeriann, Paulette Lutz, Shawn Gladden, Dan Materazzi, Judy A.

The Center is an outgrowth of the Maryland Women’s History Project that began in 1980 as a collaborative venture between the Maryland Commission for Women and the Maryland State Department of Education. The mission of the Maryland Women’s Heritage Center is to achieve positive change in the lives of Marylanders by recognizing and documenting contributions of women to our social, political, and economic order, and promoting opportunities and equality for women and girls.

Witkowski A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin May 2010 ABSTRACT “JUSTICE WITHOUT PARTIALITY”: WOMEN AND THE LAW IN COLONIAL MARYLAND, 1648-1715 Monica C. Witkowski Marquette University, 2010 What was the legal status of women in early colonial Maryland? This is the central question answered by this dissertation. Women, as exemplified through a series of case studies, understood the law and interacted with the nascent Maryland legal system. Each of the cases in the following chapters is slightly different. Each case examined in this dissertation illustrates how much independent legal agency women in the colony demonstrated. Throughout the seventeenth century, Maryland women appeared before the colony’s Provincial and county courts as witnesses, plaintiffs, defendants, and attorneys in criminal and civil trials. Women further entered their personal cattle marks, claimed land, and sued other colonists. This study asserts that they improved their social standing through these interactions with the courts. By exerting this much legal knowledge, they created an important place for themselves in Maryland society. Historians have begun to question the interpretation that Southern women were restricted to the home as housewives and mothers.

  • Cultural Anthropology Through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-Based Sentiment
    Cultural Anthropology through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-based Sentiment Peter A. Gloor, Joao Marcos, Patrick M. de Boer, Hauke Fuehres, Wei Lo, Keiichi Nemoto [email protected] MIT Center for Collective Intelligence Abstract In this paper we study the differences in historical World View between Western and Eastern cultures, represented through the English, the Chinese, Japanese, and German Wikipedia. In particular, we analyze the historical networks of the World’s leaders since the beginning of written history, comparing them in the different Wikipedias and assessing cultural chauvinism. We also identify the most influential female leaders of all times in the English, German, Spanish, and Portuguese Wikipedia. As an additional lens into the soul of a culture we compare top terms, sentiment, emotionality, and complexity of the English, Portuguese, Spanish, and German Wikinews. 1 Introduction Over the last ten years the Web has become a mirror of the real world (Gloor et al. 2009). More recently, the Web has also begun to influence the real world: Societal events such as the Arab spring and the Chilean student unrest have drawn a large part of their impetus from the Internet and online social networks. In the meantime, Wikipedia has become one of the top ten Web sites1, occasionally beating daily newspapers in the actuality of most recent news. Be it the resignation of German national soccer team captain Philipp Lahm, or the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight 17 in the Ukraine by a guided missile, the corresponding Wikipedia page is updated as soon as the actual event happened (Becker 2012.

Call 301-779-2161 by Tuesday, March 12 to reserve a seat. CALL EARLY! Limited number of seats on bus - first ones to call will get available seats. * * * * * * * MARCH IS WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH – AND HERE ARE SOME WOMEN FROM MARYLAND’s AND COTTAGE CITY’s PAST! By Commissioner Ann Marshall Young There are many amazing women in Maryland and Cottage City’s history. These are just a few, to give you an idea of some of the “greats” we can claim: Jazz singer Billie Holiday (1915 – 1959) was born Eleanora Fagan, but took her father’s surname, Holiday, and “Billie” from a silent film star. As a child she lived in poverty in East Baltimore, and later gave her first performance at Fell’s Point. In 1933 she was “discovered” in a Harlem nightclub, and soon became wildly popular, with a beautiful voice and her own, truly unique style. Her well-known song, “Strange Fruit,” described the horrors of lynchings in Jim Crow America. Through her singing, she raised consciousness about racism as well as about the beauties of African-American culture. Marine biologist and conservationist Rachel Carson (1907-1964) wrote the book Silent Spring, which, with her other writings, is credited with advancing the global environmental movement. Although opposed by chemical companies, her work led to a nationwide ban on DDT and other pesticides, and inspired a grassroots environmental movement that led to the creation of the U.S.

  • The NAACP and the Black Freedom Struggle in Baltimore, 1935-1975 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillm
    “A Mean City”: The NAACP and the Black Freedom Struggle in Baltimore, 1935-1975 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By: Thomas Anthony Gass, M.A. Department of History The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Hasan Kwame Jeffries, Advisor Dr. Kevin Boyle Dr. Curtis Austin 1 Copyright by Thomas Anthony Gass 2014 2 Abstract “A Mean City”: The NAACP and the Black Freedom Struggle in Baltimore, 1935-1975” traces the history and activities of the Baltimore branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) from its revitalization during the Great Depression to the end of the Black Power Movement. The dissertation examines the NAACP’s efforts to eliminate racial discrimination and segregation in a city and state that was “neither North nor South” while carrying out the national directives of the parent body. In doing so, its ideas, tactics, strategies, and methods influenced the growth of the national civil rights movement. ii Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to the Jackson, Mitchell, and Murphy families and the countless number of African Americans and their white allies throughout Baltimore and Maryland that strove to make “The Free State” live up to its moniker. It is also dedicated to family members who have passed on but left their mark on this work and myself. They are my grandparents, Lucious and Mattie Gass, Barbara Johns Powell, William “Billy” Spencer, and Cynthia L. “Bunny” Jones. This victory is theirs as well. iii Acknowledgements This dissertation has certainly been a long time coming.
