She was an American icon and the first lady of television during the 1950s. Not only did Lucille Ball provide laughter to millions of people, but Lucille Ball gave women a voice and America heard what she had to say. She showed women they can be accepted, and be in a position both on television and in the working world where they can be strong and independent. She was a leader and set an example for women and showed society that women have a voice to be heard and will be successful, when given the opportunity. Lucille Ball managed her career and created her personal brand by beating all obstacles that were laid in front of her and test boundaries, which lead her to become an entrepreneurial success. Lucille Ball blazed the trails for many women, on and off stage.

  • LUCY GETS the BALL ROLLING By
    PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF HOUSEWIFERY: LUCY GETS THE BALL ROLLING by EUNICE A. OGLICE (Under the Direction of Dwight Brooks) ABSTRACT The 1950’s was an era that welcomed Lucy Ricardo into their homes. The comedy I Love Lucy premiered on Oct. 15, 1951, on CBS. This study seeks to demonstrate and illustrate how Lucy Ricardo battled patriarchy, which was common among TV sitcoms of the era. Primarily, this study aims to analyze Lucy Ricardo’s role as a woman who pushes the limits of patriarchy in I Love Lucy, by examining her dual roles of someone who defies patriarchy, yet show’s allegiance to it as well. A textual analysis of 14 I Love Lucy episodes will address the established mode of domesticity in I Love Lucy, as well as opportunities for challenges that Lucy takes advantage of. This study reveals a woman who denied her husband’s wishes to control her. Lucy stepped outside of the typical portrayal of married women who were supposed to submit to their husbands and follow their every wish.

  • From Conformity to Protest: the Evolution of Latinos in American Popular Culture, 1930S-1980S
    From Conformity to Protest: The Evolution of Latinos in American Popular Culture, 1930s-1980s A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in the partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences 2017 by Vanessa de los Reyes M.A., Miami University, 2008 B.A., Northern Kentucky University, 2006 Committee Chair: Stephen R. Porter, Ph.D. Abstract “From Conformity to Protest” examines the visual representations of Latinos in American popular culture—specifically in film, television, and advertising—from the 1930s through the early 1980s. It follows the changing portrayals of Latinos in popular culture and how they reflected the larger societal phenomena of conformity, the battle for civil rights and inclusion, and the debate over identity politics and cultural authenticity. It also explores how these images affected Latinos’ sense of identity, particularly racial and ethnic identities, and their sense of belonging in American society. This dissertation traces the evolution of Latinos in popular culture through the various cultural anxieties in the United States in the middle half of the twentieth century, including immigration, citizenship, and civil rights. Those tensions profoundly transformed the politics and social dynamics of American society and affected how Americans thought of and reacted to Latinos and how Latinos thought of themselves. This work begins in the 1930s when Latin Americans largely accepted portrayals of themselves as cultural stereotypes, but longed for inclusion as “white” Americans. The narrative of conformity continues through the 1950s as the middle chapters thematically and chronologically examine how mainstream cultural producers portrayed different Latino groups—including Chicanos (or Mexican Americans), Puerto Ricans, and Cubans.

    Diocese Of Baton Rouge Year of St. Joseph & 60TH Anniversary Curriculum For Catholic Schools & Parish Schools of Religion OVERVIEW “On July 22, 1961, Blessed Pope John XXIII established the Diocese of Baton Rouge, comprising the twelve Louisiana civil parishes located in south Central Louisiana. The Holy Father named St. Joseph Church in the See city, built in 1853-1855 and renovated many times since, to be the new diocese’ Cathedral” (https://diobr.org/history) On December 8, 2020, Pope Francis promulgated the Year of St. Joseph in an Apostolic Letter entitled, “Patris Corde.” This means “With a Father’s Love” in English. https://www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/apost_letters/documents/papa-francesco-lettera- ap_20201208_patris-corde.html This lesson plan has been created to enable students in the Diocese of Baton Rouge to learn about the history of this Diocese and reflect on the role of the Bishop of Baton Rouge in their faith life. Students will also learn story of St. Joseph, Patron of the Diocese, apply his virtues to present-day life, and become aware of the numerous local churches named for St. Joseph, as well as devotions and traditions dedicated to him. This lesson plan is designed to be extended over several class periods if desired. Teachers of the various grade levels will need to adapt this packet of material to their specific situation. Objectives • The learner will acquire knowledge about: o Scriptural foundations of the Holy Catholic Church o God’s Plan for the Church as taught in the Catechism of the Catholic Church o Mission of the Church o History of the Diocese of Baton Rouge o Role of the bishop in a diocese o Facts about the bishops assigned to the Diocese of Baton Rouge.

We do so in three ways. 1. The Foundation manages charitable accounts for fund donors. On behalf of them, we distributed more than $44 million to nonprofits in 2018. The grants list starts on page 46. 2. Our donors want the greatest return for the community, so the Foundation’s Strategic Consulting Services division helps nonprofits with strategy, capacity and fundraising. Nonprofits we’ve assisted include Companion Animal Alliance, SportsBR, Gaitway Therapeutic Horsemanship, Connections for Life and USS KIDD Veterans Museum. 3. The Foundation takes on civic projects to improve the quality of life in the region. Our Civic Leadership Initiatives staff partners on these long-term projects with residents, public agencies, nonprofits and elected officials. Projects include better services for children with developmental disabilities, improving K-12 education by helping to recruit the best school operators in the country, justice system reform, leading a master plan to save and enhance the City Park/University Lakes, starting bikeshare to offer more transportation choices, and advocating for inter-city rail between Baton Rouge and New Orleans.

  • History of St. Chrysostom's Would Be Complete Without Paying Tribute to Frederick Spalding
    The History of St. Chrysostom’s Episcopal Church HISTORY OF ST. CHRYSOSTOM’S CHURCH CHAPTER 1 Thaddeus A. Snively: First Years of the Parish, 1893-1907 Sunday, January 15, 1893. "CROWDED AND COLD. Marked Characteristics of Nearly All Street-Cars," read the lead story in that day's Chicago Tribune. "TRIALS OF WEST-SIDERS. The Early Morning Service Declared To Be Wretched. NORTH SIDE NO BETTER OFF. Even the South Side Lines Are Said To Be Falling from Grace." The poor service must have been a particular hardship during the previous days; a cold spell had gripped the city and the entire eastern third of the country for most of the preceding week, with Chicago temperatures reaching -12 by midnight on the 14th (they would drop to -16 for several hours early Sunday morning before moderating later in the day). Chicagoans suffering from the extreme weather could plan to purchase on the following day, according to their budgets, real mink capes at $25.00, astrakhan fur reefers at $20.00 or military ulsters at $7.50 from Schlesinger and Mayer's at the southeast corner of State and Madison Streets; men's winter underwear at $1.25 and 49c could be bought at the Hub on the northwest corner of State and Jackson. (Those persons preferring to shop at Marshall Field's would have had to wait a day to see what was available, since Field's did not at that time advertise on Sundays.) Much news space was devoted to the forthcoming World's Columbian Exposition: a gang of French crooks with plans to "work the Fair" had just been arrested, and an article by Caroline S.
