This desert antelope became virtually extinct in the early 1960s. At_that time several groups of international conservationists arranged to have 9 animals sent to the Phoenix Zoo to be the nucleus of a captive breeding herd. Today the Oryx population is over 400 and herds have been returned to reserves in Israel; Jordan, and Oman.

  • 1 Rebel in a Dress: How Belva Lockwood Made the Case For
    1 Rebel In A Dress: How Belva Lockwood Made The Case For Women’s Rights Grace McMahan Junior Division Historical Paper Paper Length: 2500 2 Introduction On a chilly day in early March of 1879, Ms. Belva Ann Lockwood entered the United States Supreme Court. She entered not as a spectator or a defendant, but to be sworn in as the first female lawyer with the ability to argue in front of the highest court in the country. Although she was the first, Lockwood was not the last woman to argue in the halls of the court. She shattered the glass ceiling for women in law and paved the way for the others behind her. She daringly ran for president before women could even vote. Her inability to be discouraged and her fierce belief in her ideas showed others that women could be impactful figures. Belva Lockwood was the first woman to argue in front of the U.S. Supreme Court and the first female presidential candidate. Her work in law helped break barriers in terms of female integration into U.S. law and government, while simultaneously challenging gender inequalities. Background Born on October 24, 1830, in Royalton, New York, Belva Ann Bennett married at age eighteen. Her husband, Uriah, tragically died leaving Lockwood behind to raise their daughter, Lura.1 After Lockwood started a job teaching, she discovered that she was paid half the amount of men with her same job. Lockwood believed that to abolish this type of discrimination, she needed to know more about it. Drollene Brown explains it as, “..

  • Women and the Presidency
    Women and the Presidency By Cynthia Richie Terrell* I. Introduction As six women entered the field of Democratic presidential candidates in 2019, the political media rushed to declare 2020 a new “year of the woman.” In the Washington Post, one political commentator proclaimed that “2020 may be historic for women in more ways than one”1 given that four of these woman presidential candidates were already holding a U.S. Senate seat. A writer for Vox similarly hailed the “unprecedented range of solid women” seeking the nomination and urged Democrats to nominate one of them.2 Politico ran a piece definitively declaring that “2020 will be the year of the woman” and went on to suggest that the “Democratic primary landscape looks to be tilted to another woman presidential nominee.”3 The excited tone projected by the media carried an air of inevitability: after Hillary Clinton lost in 2016, despite receiving 2.8 million more popular votes than her opponent, ever more women were running for the presidency. There is a reason, however, why historical inevitably has not yet been realized. Although Americans have selected a president 58 times, a man has won every one of these contests. Before 2019, a major party’s presidential debates had never featured more than one woman. Progress toward gender balance in politics has moved at a glacial pace. In 1937, seventeen years after passage of the Nineteenth Amendment, Gallup conducted a poll in which Americans were asked whether they would support a woman for president “if she were qualified in every other respect?”4 * Cynthia Richie Terrell is the founder and executive director of RepresentWomen, an organization dedicated to advancing women’s representation and leadership in the United States.

  • Marilla Ricker in the Struggle for Women's Rights
    WLHBP womenslegalhistory.stanford.edu Reading Between the Lines: Marilla Ricker in the Struggle for Women’s Rights LeeAnn Richey Stanford Law School Professor Babcock Women in the Legal Profession WLHBP womenslegalhistory.stanford.edu An examination of the standard histories of the United States and of the history textbooks in use in our schools raises the pertinent question whether women have ever made any contributions to American national progress that are worthy of record. If the silence of the historians is to mean anything, it would appear that one-half of our population have been negligible factors in our country’s history….[A]ny consideration of woman’s part in American history must include the protracted struggle of the sex for larger rights and opportunities, a story that is in itself one of the noblest chapters in the history of American democracy. Arthur M. Schlesinger, 1922 New Viewpoints in American History 2 WLHBP womenslegalhistory.stanford.edu Introduction Marilla Ricker was the first woman to cast her ballot in a state election prior to the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1871, the first woman appointed Commissioner and Examiner in Chancery in the District of Columbia in 1884, the woman who opened the New Hampshire bar to all other women in 1890, the first woman to apply for a foreign ambassadorship in 1897, and the first woman to announce her candidacy for governor of New Hampshire in 1910. Despite being the “first” in so many aspects of her life, Marilla Ricker’s biography is largely omitted from American history. Historian Arthur Schlesinger’s astute observation regarding the omission of women’s role in American history proved all too true in Marilla Ricker’s case.

H&G6-10-Tu1 The Birth of American Imperialism Leader - Ron Levy Tuesday – Course Period 1 – 9:00 a.m. to 10:25 a.m. Description Five U.S. Presidents in a 20-year period, from Harrison to Taft, embarked on active territorial incursions and international strategies that had significant implications for our foreign policy in the 20th century. James Bradley in his book, The Imperial Cruise levels serious accusations of a racist leadership that pursued an American Aryan philosophy as it “followed the sun to the West.” Although a lauded historian, he wrote this book in more of a journalistic style which makes for enjoyable and often surprising reading. Reviews have been both favorable and critical of his controversial treatment of the subject. How legitimate are Bradley’s claims? What is the background to our territorial incursions in Asia-Pacific, and to what extent were they an extension of our similar activities in the Americas? How did they relate to the concurrent activities of other major powers? To what extent were our actions examples of regime change or of nation building? What were some of the positive and negative outcomes of our policies? Did some of our actions really lead to World War II in the Pacific? We will examine the then-recent history of Hawai’i, Cuba, Panama, the Philippines, China, Korea and Japan, and the U.S.’s relations with those countries, as the U.S.
