  • Parades, Pickets, and Prison: Alice Paul and the Virtues of Unruly Constitutional Citizenship
    PARADES, PICKETS, AND PRISON: ALICE PAUL AND THE VIRTUES OF UNRULY CONSTITUTIONAL CITIZENSHIP Lynda G. Dodd* INTRODUCTION: MODELS OF CONSTITUTIONAL CITIZENSHIP For all the recent interest in “popular constitutionalism,” constitutional theorists have devoted surprisingly little attention to the habits and virtues of citizenship that constitutional democracies must cultivate, if they are to flourish.1 In my previous work, I have urged scholars of constitutional politics to look beyond judicial review and other more traditional checks and balances intended to prevent governmental misconduct, in order to examine the role of “citizen plaintiffs”2 – individuals who, typically at great personal cost in a legal culture where the odds are stacked against them, attempt to enforce their rights in * 1 For some exceptions, see Walter F. Murphy, CONSTITUTIONAL DEMOCRACY: CREATING AND MAINTAINING A JUST POLITICAL ORDER (2007); JAMES E. FLEMING, SECURING CONSTITUTIONAL DEMOCRACY: THE CASE FOR AUTONOMY (2006); Wayne D. Moore, Constitutional Citizenship in CONSTITUTIONAL POLITICS: ESSAYS ON CONSTITUTIONAL MAKING, MAINTENANCE, AND CHANGE (Sotirios A. Barber and Robert P. George, eds. 2001); Paul Brest, Constitutional Citizenship, 34 CLEV. ST. L. REV. 175 (1986). 2 Under this model of citizenship, the citizen plaintiff is participating in the process of constitutional checks and balances. That participation can be described in terms of “enforcing” constitutional norms or “protesting” the government’s departure from them. The phrase “private attorneys general” is the traditional term used to describe citizen plaintiffs. See, e.g., David Luban, Taking Out the Adversary: The Assault on Progressive Public Interest Lawyers, 91 CAL. L. REV. 209 (2003); Pamela Karlan, Disarming the Private Attorney General, 2003 U.

  • Helen Keller
    Helen Keller 1880-1968 Early Life ● Helen Keller was born in June of 1880 in Tuscumbia, Alabama ○ Although she had been born hearing, when she was 19 months old a high fever left Helen Blind and Deaf ● While she was growing up, Keller’s parents indulged her, leading to her being a disobedient child. This was added to by her lack of the ability to communicate, causing her to become frustrated and have many outbursts. ● In 1887, Anne Sullivan entered Keller’s life as her teacher. ○ Anne was able to break through Helen’s barriers by teaching her fingerspelling in American Sign Language. It is said that Helen was feeling water through her fingers in one hand while Anne was fingerspelling the word W-A-T-E-R in the other and things clicked. Expanding Knowledge ● After Helen soaked in information to communicate full sentences using the hand alphabet, she tackled the task of learning Braille, a language consisting of raised dots that one can read by feeling. ● Keller also successfully learned speech, along with becoming an accomplished typist. ● Through all of her studies, including Helen attending the Ivy League school Radcliff, Anne Sullivan was there. ○ Helen became the first Deaf-Blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree Leaving an Impact ● After graduating in 1904, Keller became a world traveler, lecturing, writing, fundraising and raising awareness about issues concerning the disabled, poor and oppressed. ○ She also visited wounded soldiers from World War II, encouraging those who lost their sight in battle to recognize that they could still live a full life.

  • Alice Paul Keeps Fighting
    Success and Resistance - Alice Paul Keeps Fighting As Alice Paul, Lucy Burns and their colleagues continue the suffragist fight, they encounter resistance. It isn't just men who disapprove of their efforts. Even some American women are not convinced the suffragists are right. Despite the opposition, the suffragists are undaunted. The parade—on March 13, 1913—is a very serious step forward in gathering much-needed publicity for the cause. Even Helen Keller attends the event: But to the women, the event was very serious. Helen Keller “was so exhausted and unnerved by the experience in attempting to reach a grandstand . that she was unable to speak later at Continental hall [sic ].” Two ambulances “came and went constantly for six hours, always impeded and at times actually opposed, so that doctor and driver literally had to fight their way to give succor to the injured.” One hundred marchers were taken to the local Emergency Hospital. Before the afternoon was over, Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson, responding to a request from the chief of police, authorized the use of a troop of cavalry from nearby Fort Myer to help control the crowd. Despite enormous difficulties, many of those in the parade completed the route. When the procession reached the Treasury Building, one hundred women and children presented an allegorical tableau written especially for the event to show “those ideals toward which both men and women have been struggling through the ages and toward which, in co-operation and equality, they will continue to strive.” The pageant began with “The Star Spangled Banner” and the commanding figure of Columbia dressed in national colors, emerging from the great columns at the top of the Treasury Building steps.

  • The Margaret Sanger Papers Illuminate the Historical Roots of the Birth Control Movement
    AN ESSAY The Margaret Sanger Papers Illuminate the Historical Roots of the Birth Control Movement Professor Esther Katz, founder and director of the Margaret Sanger Papers, answered some questions about the digitization of the Margaret Sanger Papers in ProQuest History Vault, and the extraordinary value of this primary source material for researchers. proquest.com How is studying Margaret Sanger’s career relevant to us today? Why do you think it is important for students and researchers to have access to this content? Margaret Sanger was one of the most controversial figures in her lifetime and continues to be so today. Contentious, often inaccurate, and usually politically motivated assessments of her work, both from the Right and the Left, have appeared in scholarly and popular literature, in newspaper columns and on the Internet. Recent film documentaries dramatizing Sanger’s life attest to the growing interest in her role in American social history. This interest in Sanger and the historical and social roots of the birth control movement has been intensified by recent debates over abortion rights, sex education, contraceptive provision by schools and new birth control methods, not to mention growing concerns over attempts to limit welfare births and global population control policies. Because Sanger herself instigated public discourse on many of these issues, for which she has been both vilified and praised, demand for access to her papers and for new interpretations of her life and work has dramatically increased.1 With mixed results, various biographies and monographs have given us divergent accounts of Sanger’s life and her impact on American society.

  • Disability and Euthanasia: the Case of Helen Keller and the Bollinger Baby
    Disability and Euthanasia: The Case of Helen Keller and the Bollinger Baby John Gerdtz ABSTRACT In 1915 Helen Keller published a letter supporting the euthanasia of an infant with apparent cognitive and other disabilities. Keller had already established a national reputation as an advocate for people with disabilities, and her letter created considerable controversy. The purpose of this paper is to examine the contradictions between Keller’s strong support of services for individuals with some disabilities, while at the same time recommending euthanasia for those with different disabilities.1 N NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER 1915 the front pages of The New York Times, The Washington Post, and other prominent newspapers were Icrowded with stories about the Bollinger baby case. In November 1915 a prominent Chicago physician, Dr. Harry Haiselden, refused to perform surgery on the newborn son of the Bollinger family. He recom- mended that the baby should be left to die, basing this recommendation on his observation that the baby had a number of obvious physical disabilities. Haiselden argued that it is “our duty to defend ourselves and future generations against the mentally defective.”2 The Bollinger baby died five days later, and Haiselden began an intensive publicity campaign in support of his opinions. There was considerable public discussion of Haiselden and his actions and opinions, and in December 1915, in a letter to The New Republic, Helen Keller wrote a letter strongly supporting 1 Research for this paper was supported by a Faculty Development Grant from Saint Mary’s College of California. 2 Haiselden quotes from The New York Times, November 19,1915, p.
