Abstract:
What prompted New York City teachers to form a union in the Progressive Era? The founding of the journal American Teacher in 1912 led to creation of the Teachers’ League in 1913 and then the Teachers Union in 1916, facilitating formation of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT). Despite historiographical claims that teacher union drives needed a focus on bread-and-butter issues to succeed, ideals of educational democracy and opposition to managerial autocracy motivated the Teachers’ League. Contrary to claims that early New York City teacher unionism was unrepresentative because dominated

Purpose This paper uses archival documents to begin to recover a history of women’s leadership in the advertising industry. In particular, this paper aims to identify the leadership styles of the first five presidents of the New York League of Advertising Women’s (NYLAW) club. Their leadership from 1912 to 1926 set the course for and influenced the culture of the New York League. These five women laid the foundations of a social club that would also contribute to the professionalization of women in advertising, building industry networks for women, forging leadership and mentorship links among

Abstract Pioneering print collector and curator, Samuel P. Avery (1822–1904), donated a collection of 17,775 prints, including works by Cassatt, Whistler, Turner and Manet, to establish the Print Collection of the New York Public Library in 1900. Prior to his donation, Avery curated print exhibitions at the Library, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Grolier Club, and Union League Club. Through an examination of Avery’s persistent efforts to exhibit exemplary prints in museum and gallery settings – including an unusual collection of prints by women – this article provides evidence that Avery’s ground

While much of what has been written about the life and works of Helen Marot involved her work as Secretary of the New York City branch of the Women’s Trade Union League, little has been written about Mary S. Marot, Helen’s oldest sister, founding mother of the New York City Visiting Teacher program and initiator of the School Records programs. Even less is known about the influence of Mary Marot on educational renewal and progressive education. Yet, throughout the first two decades of the 20th century, Mary Marot was involved in political, social, as well as educational endeavors.

Abstract:
Scholars of women's suffrage have long debated credit, a meditation on which leaders won the campaign to enfranchise American women. Many argue that victory came because of Alice Paul's militancy in picketing the White House. Others insist it was Carrie Chapman Catt's pragmatism in winning state victories. Still others note that both were needed, a political “one-two punch” of strategic effectiveness. This article suggests that one contingent often excluded from this narrative is men. Male suffragists are often portrayed as driven more by a hunger for quixotic political or sexual adventure, or

Though white / black violence has been the most common form of racial violence, riots involving Asians and Hispanics are also included and examined.

In the urban industrial North, where the industry flourished, Black women eager to escape domestic service actively sought jobs in power laundries,

Abstract The traditional story of woman suffrage has been shaped by the assumption that women had to win the vote before they could hope to exercise political power or influence. In this account, the Civil War figured as a mere hiatus in women’s activism or at best a prelude to the flurry of suffrage agitation that marked the Reconstruction era. During the war, it was argued, women’s rights activists, who had hitherto shunned formal organization, learned its value through an organization called the Women’s Loyal National League (WLNL) through which they mounted a massive petition campaign for

One added, “I go to ‘Y’ classes twice a week and am studying stenography. When I worked nine hours a day I was too tired to go anywhere.” Their answers differed dramatically from those the Connecticut League had received when it asked women about their working hours just te

Chapter 3 shifts the focus of the story to New York City, one of the leading centers of the industry and one of the few places where the workers were able to form a union. This campaign began on January 1, 1912, with New York City’s first general strike of laundry workers. Organizers from the Laundry Workers International Union (LWIU), which was affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, rushed to the scene, eager to assert control over the grassroots uprising, but it was the middle- and working-class leaders of the Women’s Trade Union League (WTUL) whom the women turned to for support.
