Excerpts from MacKinnon/Schlafly Debate Catharine A. MacKinnon Introduction In the waning months of the most recent attempt to ratify a federal Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), I twice debated Phyllis Schlafly, its leading opponent since 1973 '-once at Stanford Law School', once in Los Angeles.' The argument printed here is from my presentations. I had not been actively involved in the ratification effort, had not spoken on ERA before, and had been persuaded to modify my criticism of its leading interpretation' because I did not want to undercut its chances for approval. I still do not know if it was right to remain silent while the debate on the meaning of sex equality was defined in liberal terms, thereby excluding the issues most central to the status of women and the issues most crucial to most women. Pursuing an untried, if more true, analysis of sex inequality risked losing something that might, once gained, be more meaningfully interpreted. Acquiescence in this calculation overcame the sense that ERA's theory, and strategies based on it, would not only limit its value if won, but insure its loss--a conviction that grew with each setback.

    THE INFLUENCE OF NEOCONSERVATISM IN THE DEPICTION OF VIOLENT NON-NORMATIVE WOMEN IN EROTIC THRILLERS FROM 1980 TO 2000 by ILANA SLAVIT A THESIS Presented to the Department of Cinema Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2020 An Abstract of the Thesis of Ilana Slavit for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Cinema Studies to be taken June 2020 Title: The Influence of Neoconservatism in the Depiction of Non-normative Women in Erotic Thrillers from 1980 to 2000 Approved: Peter Alilunas Primary Thesis Advisor U.S. erotic thrillers of the 1980s and 1990s are intrinsically intertwined with the socio-political history of the culture wars. Both the counter-culture movements and a laxation of cinematic censorship during the 1960s resulted in an increase in sex and violence on-screen, in addition to non-normative behavior. Thus, the culture wars began, with neoconservatives and antifeminists in the late 1970s to the 1990s pushing for traditional family values against a backdrop of loosening social mores. Violent non- normative women in erotic thrillers of the 1980s and 1990s highlighted antifeminist sentiments of the era through literalization of non-normative lifestyles as dangerous to traditional family values and U.S. culture. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Professor Alilunas for his guidance with film history and analysis, in addition to textual and formatting suggestions from a media studies lens. I would also like to thank Professor Millán for helping me to fully examine the film history from an intersectional feminist theory perspective.

  • Post-Presidential Papers, 1961-69 1964 PRINCIPAL FILE Series
    EISENHOWER, DWIGHT D.: Post-Presidential Papers, 1961-69 1964 PRINCIPAL FILE Series Description The 1964 Principal File, which was the main office file for Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Gettysburg Office, is divided into two subseries--a subject file and an alphabetical file. The subject subseries consists of a little over twenty-three boxes of material, and it is arranged alphabetically by subject. This subseries contains such categories as appointments, autographs, endorsements, gifts, invitations, memberships, memoranda, messages, political affairs, publications, statements, and trips. Invitations generated the greatest volume of correspondence, followed by appointments, messages, and gifts. Documentation in this subseries includes correspondence, schedules, agendas, articles, memoranda, transcripts of interviews, and reports. The alphabetical subseries, which has a little over thirty-four boxes, is arranged alphabetically by names of individuals and organizations. It is primarily a correspondence file, but it also contains printed materials, speeches, cross-reference sheets, interview transcripts, statements, clippings, and photographs. During 1964 Eisenhower was receiving correspondence from the public at the rate of over fifty thousand letters a year. This placed considerable strain on Eisenhower and his small office staff, and many requests for appointments, autographs, speeches, endorsements, and special messages met with a negative response. Although the great bulk of the correspondence in this series involves routine matters, there are considerable letters and memoranda which deal with national and international issues, events, and personalities. Some of the subjects discussed in Eisenhower’s correspondence include the 1964 presidential race, NATO, the U.S. space program, the U. S. economy, presidential inability and succession, defense policies, civil rights legislation, political extremists, and Cuba.

  • The Two Women's Movements
    The Two Women’s Movements Feminism has been on the march since the 1970s, but so has the conservative backlash. By Kim Phillips-Fein June 1, 2017 Phyllis Schlafly at a rally at the Illinois State Capitol in 1977. (AP) Not even death could stop Phyllis Schlafly. Her final broadside, The Conservative Case for Trump, was released the day after she died at the age of 92 last September. It was a fitting bookend to her first, A Choice Not an Echo, her self-published endorsement of Barry Goldwater for president in 1964. Unlike many other Christian conservatives who backed Texas Senator Ted Cruz in the GOP’s 2016 primaries, Schlafly supported Trump from the outset. Early in the year, she gave an hour-long interview to Breitbart News, making the case that Trump represented the only chance to overturn the “kingmakers” (her word for the Republican establishment). Like Trump, Schlafly’s politics were often focused on a muscular concept of national security. She wanted to see a “fence” protecting the country’s southern border, and she argued that Democrats were recruiting “illegals” in order to bolster their electoral chances. Despite his three marriages, she saw Trump as an “old-fashioned” man whose priorities were hard work and family. After Schlafly died, Trump returned the love. He gave a eulogy at her funeral in the Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis, raising a finger to deliver a promise: “We will never, ever let you down.” Schlafly emerged on the national scene in the early 1970s, when she led the campaign against the Equal Rights Amendment through her Eagle Forum.

  • The Long New Right and the World It Made Daniel Schlozman Johns
    The Long New Right and the World It Made Daniel Schlozman Johns Hopkins University [email protected] Sam Rosenfeld Colgate University [email protected] Version of January 2019. Paper prepared for the American Political Science Association meetings. Boston, Massachusetts, August 31, 2018. We thank Dimitrios Halikias, Katy Li, and Noah Nardone for research assistance. Richard Richards, chairman of the Republican National Committee, sat, alone, at a table near the podium. It was a testy breakfast at the Capitol Hill Club on May 19, 1981. Avoiding Richards were a who’s who from the independent groups of the emergent New Right: Terry Dolan of the National Conservative Political Action Committee, Paul Weyrich of the Committee for the Survival of a Free Congress, the direct-mail impresario Richard Viguerie, Phyllis Schlafly of Eagle Forum and STOP ERA, Reed Larson of the National Right to Work Committee, Ed McAteer of Religious Roundtable, Tom Ellis of Jesse Helms’s Congressional Club, and the billionaire oilman and John Birch Society member Bunker Hunt. Richards, a conservative but tradition-minded political operative from Utah, had complained about the independent groups making mischieF where they were not wanted and usurping the traditional roles of the political party. They were, he told the New Rightists, like “loose cannonballs on the deck of a ship.” Nonsense, responded John Lofton, editor of the Viguerie-owned Conservative Digest. If he attacked those fighting hardest for Ronald Reagan and his tax cuts, it was Richards himself who was the loose cannonball.1 The episode itself soon blew over; no formal party leader would follow in Richards’s footsteps in taking independent groups to task.

  • Serial Politics of the Equal Rights Amendment: Revisiting a Feminist Legacy
    Serial Politics of the Equal Rights Amendment: Revisiting a Feminist Legacy Elisabeth Bronfen Invoking the lack of a common ground is not new in American poli- tics. Neither is conceiving this national division in terms of a battle of opposing visions of what democracy should look like. In his “Tale of Two Cities” speech, held at the Democratic National Convention on July 16, 1984, New York Governor Mario Cuomo took President Reagan to task for describing the country as “a shining city on a hill.” Such a comparison necessitated, according to Cuomo, overlooking the fact that a significant part of the American population lived in conditions far removed from the splendor and glory implied by the Puritan ideal. By offering, instead, the image of a country split into two separate cities— one for the lucky and the other for those left out or left behind—Cuomo sought to drive home to his Democratic audience that it was essential that they unite as a party, as only they could bring the country togeth- er again. One of the issues Cuomo’s Democrats stood for at the time was gender equality, concretized in the legal text of the Equal Rights Amendment: “We speak for women who are indignant that this nation refuses to etch into its governmental commandments the simple rule ‘thou shalt not sin against equality.’ […] It’s a commandment so simple it can be spelled in three letters: ERA” (Cuomo 415). We now know that in November of that year the incumbent Ron- ald Reagan won in a landslide. For a majority of the American people, Reagan’s narrative about a shining prosperity for the fittest was the one they preferred.
