Interwoven Stories: The Harriet Tubman & Emily Howland Connection
2021-11-11 19:00 - 20:30 (America/New_York) | NY
As the National Women’s Hall of Fame positions itself to host Induction weekend in 2022, we will be creating programming that focuses on themes that tie to the work and priorities of our 2021 Inductee. Through a comprehensive series of panels, workshops, social media campaigns, and events, we will explore a wide range of topics relevant to our work to highlight the accomplishments of great American women.
During the month of November, we are excited to present Interwoven Stories. We will be exploring the connections and relationships between various people, cultures and traditions that make our nation unique.
Join us as we learn about the relationship between 1973 Inductee, Harriet Tubman and 2021 Inductee, Emily Howland.
In 2019, a photograph of a young Harriet Tubman was uncovered in a photo album originally owned by Emily Howland. During this panel, experts from the National Portrait Gallery and Library of Congress will explain the discovery, research, and preservation of the Tubman photograph. As well as discuss Tubman and Howland more broadly, and their relationship.
Panelists include:

Moderator: Kim Sajet, Director, National Portrait Gallery
Ashleigh Coren, Women’s History Content and Interpretation Curator, National Portrait Gallery
Helena Zinkham, Director for Collections & Services and Chief of the Prints and Photographs Division, Library of Congress
Marilyn Post, Research Specialist, Howland Stone Store Museum

Inclusion and Innovation: A Virtual Roundtable Discussion
2021-03-24 12:00 - 13:00
On March 24, at Noon Eastern, ITT and the National Women’s Hall of Fame are collaborating to hold a virtual panel discussion emphasizing the themes of Innovation and Inclusion.
The prestigious panel consists of 3 Inductees into the Hall, and the grand-daughter of deceased Inductee Henrietta Lacks. Two of the Inductees, Jean Kilbourne and Carlotta LaNier were inducted in 2015; Sarah Deer was inducted in 2019, and Henrietta Lacks, represented by Jeri Lacks-Whye, was inducted in 2020. All Inductees have played a major role in both elements of this panel’s theme.
Jean Kilbourne transformed the image of women in advertising in the 1960s, connecting public health issues with a lack of media literacy, paving the way for the solution of issues such as violence against women, and addiction.
Carlotta LaNier was the youngest member of the Little Rock Nine, who integrated the Little Rock, Arkansas central school in 1957. This was a catalyzing event in the Civil Rights movement of that era, presaging Brown vs. the Board of Education.
Sarah Deer , a Native American lawyer, advocates on behalf of survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence in Native American communities, and is credited for her role in the 2013 reauthorization of the “Violence against Women Act”.
Henrietta Lacks, suffering from terminal cancer in 1951, had her “HeLa” cancer cells removed and without her or her family’s knowledge sent to a tissue lab, where they doubled every 2 days unlike other cells which died. They have been used for research since, enabling crucial studies and developments. Henrietta’s granddaughter Jeri Lacks-Whye keeps the legacy of her grandmother active while fighting for patient rights, health disparities, trustworthiness between communities and medical establishments, among other issues.
Beverly Ryder, our panel moderator, was President of the Hall’s Board of Directors from 2011 to 2012, then co-President in 2013. She was a founding board member of the African American Board Leadership Institute, and is a retired executive with more than 35 years of corporate experience in the utility and banking industries.
The moderator will introduce the panelists, who will each say a few words concerning their background for this panel. Then the rest of the hour will be devoted to questions from the participants and discussion by the panelists on the topics of Innovation and Inclusion.

Where are the Women? Summit
2021-02-13 13:00 - 15:00
Unladylike2020 examines why women have such limited presence in the history and social studies curricula taught in U.S. classrooms
Producers of the women’s history documentary series and supporting curriculum convene the “Where Are the Women?” virtual summit in collaboration with PBS LearningMedia and national education partners on Saturday, February 13, 2021

The makers of Unladylike2020 are convening the Where Are the Women? Summit, in collaboration with PBS LearningMedia (PBS’s free online learning platform), and in partnership with PBS’s flagship biography series American Masters, WNET, National Women’s History Museum, National Council for the Social Studies, National Council for History Education, National Women’s Hall of Fame, and National Women’s History Alliance, to investigate why women are vastly underrepresented in U.S. history and social studies curriculum. The Where Are the Women? Summit will also provide teachers and parents access to the educational support they need to reverse this trend, so that the accomplishments of trailblazing women who have contributed to shaping the exercise of democracy in the U.S. are included in history books, and are taught in social studies classes. The 2-hour Where Are the Women? Summit will convene on YouTube Live at youtube.com/AmericanMastersPBS on Saturday, February 13, 2021, from 1pm-3pm EST, 12pm-2pm CST, 11am-1pm MST, and 10am-12pm PST.
The event will feature a poetry recitation and land acknowledgment by the U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo; a keynote address by renowned cultural historian, the Society of Black Alumni Presidential Professor and Professor of History at Johns Hopkins University, Martha S. Jones; and video testimonials from diverse women thought leaders, including: Marley Dias, founder of #1000BlackGirlBooks; Isa Noyola, Co-President of the Women’s March Board and Deputy Director at Mijente, the fastest growing English language social-network for the Latinx community; Debra Sanchez, Senior Vice President of Education and Children’s Content at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting; Stefanie Wager, President of the National Council of the Social Studies; and Teresa C. Younger, President and CEO of the Ms. Foundation for Women. The summit will include a dynamic panel discussion and live chat audience Q&A with social studies teachers, historians, textbook authors, curriculum policy leaders, and youth advocates, to examine the factors that have limited the presence of women in textbooks, educational standards, and curriculum, as well as efforts to ensure that the role of women as history-makers and agents of change is taught, and is historically accurate and equitable. As part of the event, PBS Digital Innovator All-Star high school teachers will demonstrate, and answer audience questions about, their creation and implementation of the Unladylike2020 collection on PBS LearningMedia, lesson plans and curriculum that represent the accomplishments of women in history, and are tailor-made for virtual, in-person, and hybrid learning.

Winners of the My Hero Project’s 2020 Women Transforming Media Award, Unladylike2020 Executive Producers Sandra Rattley and Charlotte Mangin, were inspired to stage this national conversation after reading a National Women’s History Museum research report that analyzed K – 12 social studies standards for the 50 states and Washington, D.C. The findings published in the Where are the Women? report said that, out of 737 historical figures taught in the standard curriculum, just 178, or 24% are women, including several fictional characters. 98 of the women appear in only 1 state standard; only 15 are taught in more than 10 states. Mangin states, “The mission of the Unladylike2020 series was to expand how history is taught and understood across the country. We hope this summit will help activate significant educational change and provide long-overdue recognition of women’s contributions to U.S. history.” Rattley adds, “It’s encouraging that so many national educational organizations have embraced this cause as a part of their efforts to ensure equal and accurate representation of diverse history makers.” Director of Education at the National Women’s History Museum, Lori Ann Terjesen, will provide a summary brief of the museum’s Where are the Women? research report at the summit.

The Where Are the Women? summit is free and open to the public. Teachers who participate will receive a 2-hour professional development credit for their attendance, and all participants will get a free women’s history resource guide as a takeaway. The Unladylike2020 Where Are the Women? Summit is made possible by funding provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

Bayer to Speak at Blackwell Dedication Ceremony
2018-05-14 18:00 - 19:00
Professor of Women’s Studies Betty Bayer joins a panel of distinguished speakers for the unveiling of the historic plaque marking the hospital founded by Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell Class of 1849, the first woman in America to receive her degree as a Doctor of Medicine.
The dedication ceremony, hosted by the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, will begin at 6 p.m. on Monday, May 14 at 58 Bleecker Street in New York, N.Y., the site of The New York Infirmary for Women and Children, the first hospital for women, staffed by women, and run by women.
Following her graduation at the head of her class from Hobart’s precursor, the medical school of Geneva College, Blackwell not only founded the New York Infirmary for Women and Children but aided in the creation of its medical college. After returning to England, she helped found the National Health Society, was the first woman to be placed on the British Medical Register, and taught at England’s first college of medicine for women. She was a pioneer in preventive medicine and in the promotion of antisepsis and hygiene and was responsible for the first chair of hygiene in any medical college.
Find out more and register for the event.

Bayer is an expert on the intersections of women’s history, psychology, science, religion and spirituality. She has explored the abolitionist and women’s rights movements, and their common history in central New York. Recognized for her outstanding teaching, Bayer received the Colleges’ Distinguished Faculty Teaching Award in 2004 and the Community Service Award in 2009. She has served as the chair of the Women’s Studies Program since 2001 and directed the Fisher Center for the Study of Women and Men from 2002 to 2009. Bayer serves as president of the board of directors of the National Women’s Hall of Fame where Dr. Blackwell is among the inaugural class of inductees named in 1973. Follow the NWHF on Facebook, and on Instagram.
A former senior fellow at the Martin Marty Center for the Study of Religion at the University of Chicago, Bayer earned her Ph.D., M.A. and B.A. in psychology from Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada.
Geneva College was renamed Hobart Free College in 1852 and Hobart College in 1860.
The statue of Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell (pictured above) sits on the campus of Hobart and William Smith Colleges. It was sculpted by HWS Professor of Art and Architecture A.E. Ted Aub.
