I came downtown and walked around the corner and then asked the City of Reno, Historic Resource Commission if we could meet with them to discuss the marker. Joanne came to Reno and we pitched the marker and the national program of erecting these plaques all across the country. There is a foundation that is paying for these [The William G. Pomeroy Foundation], but by the time we had jumped all the City’s hoops we probably wouldn’t have gotten the marker installed in 2020. The point of getting the marker erected is because this is the 100th anniversary of suffrage. The City has guidelines for markers and rather than matching the national markers, our suffragist marker matches the City’s requirements. So, I just said, “I’ll pay for it, so we can get it in 2020.” Joanne and I worked with the Historic I think you both know that there are four other Resource Commission on the wording and they markers erected across the state wherever approved it with a plan to erect it.

Zonta Club of Greater Reno By Joy Orlich and Lisa-Marie Lightfoot Zonta holds a place in Nevada Women’s History Project (NWHP) hearts as they were among the first organizational members of NWHP in 1995. Zonta and NWHP share a passion for supporting and honoring all Nevada women, present and past; Zonta through advocacy and recognition, NWHP through the sharing of the amazing women in Nevada’s history. The history of Zonta is best documented by their current president and founder, Joy Orlich. She offers the overview below: “The name Zonta is derived from a Sioux Indian word meaning "honest and trustworthy", and had its origins in Buffalo, New York back in 1919. No doubt many early members were suffragists. Zonta was formed as a women's service club back in an era when most service clubs were for men only, and professional women wanted a way to connect and advocate The marker states: for causes important to women.

Anne Martin’s tenure as president of the NEFS (1912- 1914), followed her participation in the British suffrage campaign and preceded her run for the U.S. Senate in 1918 and 1920. She helped to establish a statewide network of suffrage leagues in every county to gain male voters’ support. Success came on November 3, 1914 when voters in all but four counties passed full suffrage for women.

  • Native American Women's Transrhetorical Fight for La
    WILKINSON, ELIZABETH LEIGH. Ph.D. Story as a Weapon in Colonized America: Native American Women’s Transrhetorical Fight for Land Rights. (2008) Directed by Dr. Karen L. Kilcup. 265 pp. The violent collision between Native American and Euro-American politics, spirituality, economy, and community appears most prominently in each culture’s attitude toward land, which connects intimately with the position women held in each society. The social construction of land and a woman’s “place”—and the interconnectedness between the two as viewed through a Euro-American lens—conflicted so wholly with that of many Native American cultures that what resulted were wars, many fought physically on battlefields, but many others with rhetoric in speeches, books, petitions, and reports. The idea that the two cultures might fight bloody battles over land rights does not need much explanation; however, that they might come to blows as a result of how women acted in each society requires more attention. Synthesizing the heterogeneous methodologies and insights of American Indian literature, nineteenth-century women’s writing, and the history and theory of rhetoric, this dissertation articulates the transrhetorical power of Native American women: their ability to cross cultural and gendered boundaries of rhetoric. I argue that while white middle- class women such as Lydia Maria Child, Catharine Maria Sedgwick, and Margaret Fuller sought to empower themselves by speaking through Native women’s voices, indigenous writers Nancy Ward, Narcissa Owen, Sarah Winnemucca, and Gertrude Bonnin, fluidly negotiating white definitions of gender and culture, used their roles as transrhetors in order to protest land theft and to fight to reclaim territories unjustly taken by the United States government, using rhetoric as a weapon in the war over land.
