  • Women's History Can Be Taught As a Unit in a United States History Class Or As a United States Women's History Elective
    Why Celebrate Woman's History Month by Alan Singer Throughout human history, including most of the history of the United States, women have been treated as second-class citizens. Their continuing second-class status is reflected in many social studies classrooms, where the roles played by women in society and their achievements in the past and present, continue to remain virtually invisible. Although women's names and faces now appear more frequently in social studies textbooks, their inclusion is generally an addition to an already existing curriculum. Female heroes were discovered and fit into previous topics and categories. There is little exploration of the role of women in earlier societies; the ways they lived, the accommodations they were forced to make to patriarchal and oppressive social mores, the familial and community networks and institutions they built, or the struggles women engaged in to achieve legal, political, and economic rights. In an article published by the National Council for Social Studies, Nel Noddings argued that a completely reconceptualized social studies curriculum should focus on women's culture, the realm of the home and family, the idea of women's work, and the role of women as community and international peacemakers.1 In his book, The Disuniting of America, Reflections on a Multicultural Society , Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. argues that the attention given to difference by multiculturalists and ethnocentrists threatens to reinforce "the fragmentation, resegregation, and tribalization of American life." He is particularly concerned that school curricula that focus on specific ethnic or aggrieved social groups are celebratory rather than academic and critical.

Smith, and Laura Wheeler-Waring were illustrators for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People’s (NAACP) publication The Crisis during the early part of the twentieth-century. The illustrators of The Crisis came from a variety of backgrounds and different African American communities. Their political cartoons and illustrations between 1913 and 1922 are historically significant because these artists fought against the false and racists imagery that was printed in white media. Their contributions to the publication were instrumental in creating a visual political statement that spoke to the multiple experiences of African Americans.

For centuries, Philadelphia was an incubator of suffrage thought, home to many suffrage leaders — and a testing ground for some of the most famous demonstrations. In 2020, Philadelphia honors the centennial of women’s voting rights — and the future of the women’s rights movement — not only by renaming itself the City of Sisterly Love, but also by hosting many special exhibitions and events. These include Women 100, a citywide program featuring live and fine arts, a road rally and a massive public toast to the suffragettes. There will be history-centric exhibitions at the Brandywine River Museum of Art, National Constitution Center and Museum of the American Revolution, and art-centric ones at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and Philadelphia Museum of Art. What’s more, summer 2020 will see the grand opening of Philadelphia’s Guild House Hotel, a boutique operation in a National Historic Landmark building that belonged to — and will honor — a 19th-century working women’s advocacy and support group.

  • The Barnett Aden Gallery: a Home For
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Arts and Architecture THE BARNETT ADEN GALLERY: A HOME FOR DIVERSITY IN A SEGREGATED CITY A Dissertation in Art History by Janet Gail Abbott Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2008 ii The dissertation of Janet Gail Abbott was reviewed and approved* by the following: Joyce Henri Robinson Associate Professor of Art History Dissertation Advisor Co-Chair of Committee Sarah K. Rich Associate Professor of Art History Co-Chair of Committee Charlotte Houghton Associate Professor of Art History Joan Landes Ferree Professor of History and Women’s Studies Craig Zabel Associate Professor of Art History Head of the Department of Art History *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT In 1943 Professor James V. Herring along with Alonzo J. Aden, his former student and colleague at Howard University, opened the Barnett Aden Gallery within the modest home they shared in Washington, D.C. As founders of one of the first black- owned galleries in the nation, their mission was to provide an exhibition space for talented artists without regard to ethnicity or national origin. During the next twenty-five years, the Barnett Aden Gallery became a unique site for cross-cultural exchange—where artists, writers, musicians, and politicians of all races met freely for social, professional, and aesthetic discourse—one of few such places in severely segregated Washington, D.C. The Barnett Aden performed the traditional gallery function of featuring talented emerging artists, but it provided a critical service for African American artists, who had few opportunities to show their work in parity with white artists or even to see evidence of their existence within established art institutions.
