  • Standing up Against Wealth-Shaming,The US Chamber
    Standing Up Against Wealth- Shaming America, we have a bullying epidemic. No, not the school bullying issues that get constant attention from Hollywood, the White House and the media. No, not the “fat-shaming” and “body-shaming” outbreaks on Facebook. The problem is wealth- shaming. Class-shaming. Success-shaming. The State of the Job Creator is under siege. Last week, a prominent self-made tech mogul dared to diagnose the problem publicly. His passionate letter to The Wall Street Journal decried the “progressive war on the American 1 percent.” He called on the left to stop demonizing “the rich,” and he condemned the Occupy movement’s “rising tide of hatred.” The mini-manifesto was newsworthy because this truth-teller is not a GOP politician or conservative activist or Fox News personality. As he points out, he lives in the “epicenter of progressive thought, San Francisco.” No matter. The mob is shooting the messenger anyway. But maybe, just maybe, his critical message in defense of our nation’s achievers will transcend, inspire, embolden and prevail. The letter-writer is Tom Perkins, a Silicon Valley pioneer with an MIT degree in electrical engineering and computer science and a Harvard MBA. He started out at the bottom at Hewlett-Packard, founded his own separate laser company on the side and then teamed up with fellow entrepreneur Eugene Kleiner to establish one of the nation’s oldest and most important venture capital firms, Kleiner Perkins Caufield and Byers. A hands-on dynamo, Perkins immersed himself in the science and technology of the companies in his portfolio.

  • Reference Shelf June 2018 National Debate Topic.Indd
    1 Immigration Then and Now Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty Images Elisabeth Volmar, orginally from Haiti, becomes an American citizen during a U.S. Citizenship & Immigra- tion Services naturalization ceremony at the Hialeah Field Offi ce on January 12, 2018 in Hialeah, Florida. 150 people from different countries around the world took part in the Oath of Allegiance. Letting Them In: America’s Turbulent Immigration History The nation’s fi rst immigration law, the Uniform Rule of Naturalization (signed into law in 1790), provided a comparatively easy road to immigration and naturalization than would be familiar to those attempting to navigate America’s complex immigra- tion terrain in the twenty-fi rst century. As a small, fl edgling nation, few saw the need for detailed immigration restrictions in 1790 and many politicians favored liberal immigration as a way to build the nation’s workforce and to bolster the nation’s de- fensive forces. The nation’s fi rst law was therefore rudimentary, requiring only that a person live in the nation for two years, be white and not a slave, and to declare an oath of allegiance in any offi cial court. However, there were some who felt the new law would lead to a rapid infl ux of undesirables. Among these was James Madison, who said in a February 1790 debate on the topic: When we are considering the advantages that may result from an easy mode of natural- ization, we ought also to consider the cautions necessary to guard against abuses; it is no doubt very desirable, that we should hold out as many inducements as possible, for the worthy part of mankind to come and settle amongst us and throw their fortunes into a common lot with ours.

  • Reportedly at the Hands of White Nationalists
    TRUMP AND HIS SURROGATES LOUDLY PEDDLED DEBUNKED RIGHT-WING CONSPIRACY THEORIES TIED TO QANON AND WHITE SUPREMACISTS, GIVING THEM FALSE LEGITIMACY SUMMARY As Trump and his allies searched for justifications to claim electoral victory, the far-right online community played a pivotal role in originating claims for the campaign to push. Conspiracies from white supremacists, QAnon supporters, and long-time conspiracy theorists were elevated, disseminated, and pushed out by the president and his allies. There seems to be a direct flow from the furthest right reaches of the internet and the official spokespeople of the president —including the president himself — such as: • The president promoting numerical figures developed by “TheDonald.Win” — an online community founded to openly post hate speech and calls to violence — in an attempt to prove his false voter fraud claims. • Promoting “Stop The Steal” events planned by white supremacists, including one that led to a stabbing reportedly at the hands of white nationalists. • Lending credibility to the mysterious, propagandic twitter account “Election Wizard,” which promotes election conspiracy theories and follows noted white supremacists and QAnon accounts. • Using a QAnon promoted conspiracy to fire a top elections cybersecurity official.

Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.

  • Portraits & Early Work Arnold Newman Opening
    Portraits & Early Work Arnold Newman ! Opening: May 8th from 6 until 9 pm Show: May 9th until June 28th 2014 ! ____________________________ ! FIFTY ONE TOO is pleased to announce the first solo show by the renowned photographer Arnold Newman (USA, 1918-2006). He’s legendary for his ‘environmental portraiture’: a new approach that he established by capturing his subjects in their surroundings in order to reveal the essence of the sitter’s personality and/or profession. World’s most eminent people took place before his lens: from post-war American and European artists to cultural figures and intellectuals to even American Presidents. Aside his narrative portraits, he is also known for his abstract and documentary photography, his ‘early work’. ! Although he began to study painting Arnold Newman switched quickly to photography. His photographic career started at chain portrait studios in Philadelphia in the late 1930s. There he learned the importance of interacting with the people in front of the lens. In his spare time he wondered around with his camera and mingled with art students who were trained at that time by Alexey Brodovitch (1898-1971), the influential art director of Harper’s Bazaar. Through them Brodovitch’s innovative perspective encouraged to develop Newman’s gaze by photographing his surroundings in a graphical, abstract way. His early work shows views of city walls, porches, chairs, doorways, etc… which affirm a graphic simplicity. Also inspired by Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange’s he captured social-documentary images of subordinated neighborhoods. In 1941 he was discovered by Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946) and had his first exhibition in Manhattan.

  • For Immediate Release
    Arnold Newman The Early Works: 1938-1942 Sitters and Signatures Autographed Portraits by Arnold Newman 18 January – 17 March, 2007 Reception with the Artist’s Family Wednesday, 17 January, 2007, 6-8pm New York - Howard Greenberg Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of photographs by Arnold Newman. Conceived with the artist prior to his death on June 6, 2006, this exhibition will feature a remarkable group of virtually unknown photographs that pre-date Newman’s celebrated career as a portraitist. The south gallery will feature classic portraits by Newman that have the particular virtue of having been signed and inscribed by the sitters. The early work is revelatory, the portraiture a powerful reminder of the artist’s legacy as one of the most accomplished and revered photographers of his generation. Of these early photographs Newman said, “I had worked very deliberately on my paintings and the direction in my photography followed the same concept. I was building a photograph. I wasn’t taking one.” This precept is made manifest in all of Newman’s photographs but particularly so in the work he produced in Florida in the late 1930’s. With the money he made in the studio he was able to purchase a Speed Graphic camera with a high-quality lens and with his new equipment began to “build” photographs of a highly experimental nature. Incorporating many of the aesthetic principles of Cubism, Newman produced straight images that border on abstraction. By isolating shapes and objects, emphasizing linearity, and maximizing the visual effects of light and shadow, he created images of remarkable beauty and compositional rigor.

    GREAT AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE 2019WOMEN CALENDAR CLARE BOOTHE LUCE CENTER FOR CONSERVATIVE WOMEN Dear Friend, You honor the American flag and our national anthem. It was a great American patriot– Betsy Ross – who stitched the flag together. Today, teaching respect for the flag is too often out of fashion. However, it is never out of fashion at the Clare Boothe Luce Center for Conservative Women and the women we educate. We hope we touch each life like Betsy Ross did. She was a great woman role model like the women featured each month in our calendar. You can help us too. You can help by displaying this calendar and helping to introduce women to the Clare Boothe Luce Center for Conservative Women. This year as we begin using our expanded Center for Conservative 2019 Women Headquarters we give thanks to all the brave students who stand up to the Left and volunteer so much time to promote conservative ideas. And special thanks to the generous supporters who make all our work possible.
