Download or read book The Concise History of Woman Suffrage written by Paul Buhle and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The massive size of the original six-volume History of Woman Suffrage has likely limited its impact on the lives of the women who benefitted from the efforts of the pioneering suffragists. By collecting miscellanies like state suffrage reports and speeches of every sort without interpretation or restraint, the set was often neglected as impenetrable. In their Concise History of Woman Suffrage, Mari Jo Buhle and Paul Buhle have revitalized this classic text by carefully selecting from among its best material. The eighty-two chosen documents, now including interpretative introductory material by the editors, give researchers easy access to material that the original work's arrangement often caused readers to ignore or to overlook. The volume contains the work of many reform agitators, among them Angelina Grimké, Lucy Stone, Carrie Chapman Catt, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Anna Howard Shaw, Jane Addams, Sojourner Truth, and Victoria Woodhull, as well as Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Matilda Joslyn Gage, and Ida Husted Harper.
Download or read book The Story of the Illinois Federation of Colored Women s Clubs written by Elizabeth Lindsay Davis and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Illinois Federation of Colored Women's Clubs: 1900 1922 In the past twenty-two years much has been accomplished by the Colored women of Illinois. Those who are closely connected with or deeply interested in the Illinois Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, know of the struggle that has been made and the success that has been attained. Time, in its progress has, however, taken from the work many of the pioneers and has substituted those of a younger generation, who like the general public, of times do not appreciate the fullness of organized effort. Realizing this and the fact that records of the Federation were frequently being lost, it was decided at the meeting held at Bloomington in 1918, to appoint a Historian to compile the records or rather, write a story of the work that has been done up to the present time. Because of the fact that I have had an unusual opportunity to be present at practically every meeting of the State Federation and have been active in club work since its conception among colored women, I was given the task of writing this story.I unfortunately, cannot lay claim to any especial literary ability, but have undertaken the work with a sincerity of interest that I trust will overshadow any lack of fitness. The functions of this volume have to do with Club Women of prominence and character, who have accomplished deeds and are not surrounded with duties appealing to the imagination for appreciation or condemnation. The women herein mentioned, may be justly proud of their record, splendid enthusiasm, lofty ideals, patriotism and other achievements - the traditions of the Illinois Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. Space has prevented in giving credit to ail the loyal women, who have made the club movement hi Illinois a success, nor am 1 able to extend my thanks and appreciation to the legion who have so heartily co-operated with me by furnishing data, advice and inspiration. My greatest desire in presenting this volume, is that those younger women among our ranks will find in it, information that will give them a greater appreciation of the work and usefullness of the "Pioneers" and that through this greater appreciation, they will be inspired to "Carry On."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trailblazing women working in digital arts media and education established the Midwest as an international center for the artistic and digital revolution in the 1980s and beyond. Foundational events at the University of Illinois and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago created an authentic, community-driven atmosphere of creative expression, innovation, and interdisciplinary collaboration that crossed gender lines and introduced artistically informed approaches to advanced research. Interweaving historical research with interviews and full-color illustrations, New Media Futures captures the spirit and contributions of twenty-two women working within emergent media as diverse as digital games, virtual reality, medicine, supercomputing visualization, and browser-based art. The editors and contributors give voice as creators integral to the development of these new media and place their works at the forefront of social change and artistic inquiry. What emerges is the dramatic story of how these Midwestern explorations in the digital arts produced a web of fascinating relationships. These fruitful collaborations helped usher in the digital age that propelled social media.
