Begin at the Beginning
Pamphlet advocating for compulsory kindergarten as a means to Americanization. Written by Philander Priestly Claxton, former United States Commissioner of Education, and David Starr Jordan, Chancellor Emeritus, Leland Stanford Junior University. <br /><br />Excerpt:<br /><br />"THE CHILD IS THE FATHER OF THE MAN <br /><br />The way to 'Americanize' foreigners as well as the native born is to commence at the beginning or as near there as possible. The idea of a kindergarten, like that of any other form of garden, is to give proper culture and to give it early, when it is most needed. The most important duty of any people is to care for its children. In the schools of today the future of the nation is written. And to the kindergarten all higher schools must look for the initiative of their work. All other forms of 'national defense' dwindle into impertinent insignificance when compared with the training of the children."
Claxton, P. P.

Better Babies [suffrage pamphlet]
National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA) pamphlet on how woman suffrage improves children's health. <br />Cover editorial cartoon by Rose O'Neill. Originally published in <em><a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=chi.21171404&view=2up&seq=132" target="_blank" title="The Woman Voter on HathiTrust.org" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Woman Voter</a>, </em>May 1916.<br /><br />Text excerpts: <br /><br />"300,000 babies die every year in the United States before they are one year old. <br /><br />The death of a baby in at least 50 per cent. of the cases is due to <strong>preventable causes.</strong><br /><br />Five times as many babies die in crowded tenement districts as in a well-to-do quarter of a city. Lack of air and sunshine, poor food, bad sanitation, overwork of the mothers, both before and after marriage, above all <strong>ignorance</strong> on the part of the <strong>mother</strong>, are responsible for most of these deaths....<br /><br />Isn't it evident that when mothers are represented in govenment and their opinions and interests are consulted, babies have a better chance? Isn't it proved that women with the ballot do <strong>not</strong> neglect their home and babies?<br /><br /><strong>Giving</strong> the <strong>ballot</strong> to <strong>women</strong> not only <strong>helps</strong> them to <strong>do</strong> their <strong>own work</strong> more <strong>effectively</strong>, but <strong>actually increases</strong> the <strong>wealth</strong> of the <strong>nation.</strong>"

Beware! Men of the South [anti-suffrage handbill]
An anti-suffrage handbill which attempted to sway men's opinions by making them fearful. This one asks the reader to recall the American Civil War, which had taken place during their parents' lifetime.<br /><br />Text: <br /><br />"BEWARE! <br />MEN OF THE SOUTH: Heed not the song of the suffrate siren! Seal your ears against her vocal wiles! For, no matter how sweetly she may proclaim the advantage of female franchise, --<br /><br />REMEMBER that Woman Suffrage mean a re-opening of the entire Negro Suffrage question; loss of state rights; and another period of reconstruction horrors, which will introduce a set of female carpetbaggers as bad as their male prototypes of the sixties.<br /><br />DO NOT JEOPARDIZE the present prosperity of your sovereign states, which was so dearly bought by the blood of your fathers and the tears of your mothers, by again raising an issue which has already been adjusted at so great a cost. <br /> <br />NOTHING can be gained by woman suffrage and everything may be lost!

Boating Not Busing [National Socialist White Peoples Party flyer]
Anti-busing, anti-integration, anti-government flyer created by the National Socialist White Peoples Party (previously named the American Nazi Party) of Arlington, Va.<br /><br />Using violent antisemitic and racist speech, this flyer paints a dire picture of an integrated America if white people don't "get away from the old two-party windle and get behind a REAL political party that represents THEIR interests!"<br /><br />While undated, this flyer is believed to date to around 1972 during the <a href="https://www.virginiahistory.org/collections-and-resources/virginia-history-explorer/civil-rights-movement-virginia/school-busing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">school busing</a> conflicts in Virginia.

Bond, Piedmont Sanatorium
Bond, issued in 1917 in return for a donationof $1.00 toward the construction of Piedmont Sanatorium. <br /><br />The Piedmont Sanatorium was established in Burkeville, Virginia, in June, 1918. At that time, tuberculosis was one of the leading causes of death for African Americans, but segregated health care in Virginia dictated that blacks could receive treatment in only two facilities—Central State Hospital (a mental health facility) and the state penitentiary. <br /><br />The <a href="https://www.encyclopediavirginia.org/negro_organization_society" target="_blank" title="Negro Organization Society" rel="noreferrer noopener">Negro Organization Society</a> initiated discussions with the State Board of Health, particularly Agnes D. Randolph, the Director of the Bureau of Tuberculosis Education. Randolph was instrumental in convincing the state government to establish a facility for African Americans. <br /><br />The Negro Organization Society continued to be heavily involved with the issue, from raising public awareness to donating funds to improve the facility. Piedmont Sanatorium had closed by 1965, when black patients began to be sent to Blue Ridge Sanatorium, near Charlottesville. <br /><br />Excerpt: <br />"This Bond is issued for the purpose of cooperation with the Negro Organization Society to erect and to equip one Building to be used for the patients and to include rooms for visiting Doctors who shall from time to time be invited for study to the Sanatorium. The purchaser hereby receives a share in the benefit and happiness to be derived."

Boys using carpentry tools, Josephine Newbury Demonstration Kindergarten, Richmond, Va.
<p>Three young boys stand around a sawhorse using hammer and saw at the Josephine Newbury Demonstration Kindergarten, Richmond, VA.<br /><br />Before the Newbury Center opened in 1957, there was no education available in a school setting in Richmond or the surrounding counties for children younger than five. Preschool itself was an innovative concept then. This new purpose-built facility was created to become a model preschool for the training of teachers and the design of innovative curriculum. Professor Josephine Newbury of the Presbyterian School of Christian Education, Richmond, Va., established the school.</p>
<p>The professional images in this collection are the work of the Dementi Studios, one of Richmond's foremost portrait and documentary photographers. The series was made shortly after the Demonstration Kindergarten opened in 1957. They present an idealized image of childhood experience, social expectations, and gender roles, as well as the educational philosophy and methods of the time.</p>

Builders of the Future!
Public service comic published as a part of the National Social Welfare Assembly Comics Project. The Comics Project lasted from August 1949 - July 1967 and produced over 200 pages promoting citizenship and social values. <br /><br />Comic Description: The comic shows how, with funding and help from UNESCO, children in Africa were able to get a school built near their home so that children in their area would be able to receive an education. The last panel of the comic says "UNESCO is the United Nation's Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, and it is helping to increase understanding among people of all nations, so we can grow up in a peaceful world."<br /><br />[Image Description: The cover shows a hunk of kryptonite being catapulted by two men from a tank directly at Superboy who is flying in the air. Kid Psycho saves superboy by projecting a shield from his eyes that deflect the kryptonite. A talk balloon from Superboy says "You've saved me again, Kid Psycho...this time with an anti-kryptonite shield projected by your... eyes! What I'd give to have your powers!"]<br /><br />Publisher's Note: "Published as a public service in cooperation with The National Social Welfare Assembly, coordinating organization for national health, welfare and recreation agencies of the U.S."

Burnt Cork and Crime
Pamphlet published by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, an organization which opposed lynching and promoted interracial dialogue and cooperation.<br /><br />Described on the cover as "stories summarized from press reports," the pamphlets relates incidents in which crimes were committed by persons posing as African Americans. These imposters blackened their faces and hands with burnt cork. <br /><br />Other stories describe false accusations by whites, and often white women, against black men. <br /><br />Excerpt from p.1<br />"In St. Louis some time ago a robber caught with blackened face stated that there was an organized group of white bandits who always operated under the mask of color. In this way, he said, it was easy to fool the officers, and in some cases even to assist in the search for the suspected Negro and 'identify' him when caught."<br /><br />p. 6 "The meaning is obvious, however, as it relates to hasty judgment, hysteria, mob violence, and the assumption that every Negro is guilty who anybody seeks to accuse. It suggests also that the statistics of Negro crime, now happily changing for the better, might be further lightened if all the facts were known and the mask of color torn away."

Candlelight AIDS memorial vigil on E. Grace Street, from St. Paul's Episcopal Church to Capitol Square, Richmond, Va.
<p>In 1981, Dr. Michael Gottlieb of UCLA identified a new disease that, among its many signs, severely weakened the immune system. Named acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), this disease was initially seen among gay men in large cities. <br /> Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), identified in 1985, is transmitted through blood, genital fluids (such as semen) and breastmilk. <br /><br />The earliest confirmed case of AIDS in the U.S. was in 1968, with the first case in Virginia reported in 1982. With no known cure, HIV/AIDS was initially a death sentence for those infected. <br /><br />Participants in this 1987 candlelight AIDS memorial vigil walked down E. Grace Street from St. Paul's Episcopal Churh to Capitol Square in Richmond, Va.</p>

<span>In the early 1900’s, non-resident settlement houses were created throughout the country to assist with immigrant adjustment to America.

Programs of social, recreational and religious activities were provided for the children of recent Jewish immigrants. <br /><br />Neighborhood House was eventually funded by the Richmond general community, offering activities for all immigrant children and their families.

Charlene's [poster]
Advertisement for Charlene's bar. "New Orleans 1977 - 1999"<br /><br />Charlene Schneider was an early and vocal advocate for LGBTQ causes in the 1970s. The center of her world was Charlene's, the bar she ran at 940 Elysian Fields in New Orleans from 1977 until early 1999. It became world-famous not only because of Ms. Schneider's effusive personality but also because, in its early years, Charlene's represented something rare: a safe place for lesbians when attitudes toward them were less tolerant. Besides giving women a place where they could socialize and dance, Ms. Schneider had live music by female entertainers, including Melissa Etheridge. <br /><br />Ms. Schneider opened the bar after a series of odd jobs, including stints at Western Union and The Times-Picayune, where she was a hot-type operator. Along the way she had firsthand experience with discrimination. In the mid-1960s, after being arrested in a raid on a gay bar, Ms. Schneider lost her job as a cryptographer, as well as her security clearance with NASA at Michoud. As a result of her experiences, one of her causes was the anti-discrimination ordinance, which the New Orleans City Council passed in 1991. <br /><br />After closing her bar, Ms. Schneider and her companion, Linda Tucker, moved to Bay St. Louis, where she operated an establishment called On the Coast.<br /><br />Poster inscribed:<br />"To Jody & Marilyn<br />How can I tell the importance of your friendship. <br />Love<br />Charlene<br />99"

Child Labor in Virginia. NCLC Pamphlet No. 171
Pamphlet by Alexander Jeffrey McKelway, Secretary for the Southern States, National Child Labor Committee. With photographs by Lewis W. Hine, staff photographer for the NCLC. <br /><br />Lewis Hine made a photographic investigation of child labor in Virginia in May and June of 1911. This pamphlet discusses the extent of child labor in the state where children were employed in cotton, silk and knitting mills, coal mines, cigarette factories, glass factories, shoe factories, and as newsboys, messenger boys, and actors on stage. <br /><br />Excerpts:<br /><br />p.3-4 "The cotton mills have often put themselves forward as patrons of education. The figures of the Federal Bureau of Labor do not bear out this claim. The Census shows that 9 per cent. of the white children ten to fourteen years of age throughout the state are illiterate. In the cotton mills 70 per cent. of the children under fourteen were found to be illiterate by the agents of the Bureau of Labor, a greater percentage than are to be found, even in the cotton mill families of any other state, north or south."<br /><br />p.5 "...there was no necessity for the labor of these children under fourteen; while it is admitted by all philanthropic agencies that even if there were in individual cases such need, the last expedient that should be adopted is the putting of the burden of family support upon the shoulders of the immature child."<br /><br />p. 9 "It is true, therefore, that a large majority of the industries of Virginia do not employ children under fourteen, and these establishments should be protected from the competition of the child-employing industries, which are here mentioned and illustrated."
McKelway, A. J.

Children learning about corn, Josephine Newbury Demonstration Kindergarten, Richmond, Va.
Josephine Newbury teaching children about corn and other plants at the Josephine Newbury Demonstration Kindergarten, Richmond, Va. <br /><br />Before the Newbury Center opened in 1957, there was no education available in a school setting in Richmond or the surrounding counties for children younger than five. Preschool itself was an innovative concept then. This new purpose-built facility was created to become a model preschool for the training of teachers and the design of innovative curriculum. Professor Josephine Newbury of the Presbyterian School of Christian Education, Richmond, Va., established the school.<br /><br />The professional images in this collection are the work of the Dementi Studios, one of Richmond's foremost portrait and documentary photographers. The series was made shortly after the Demonstration Kindergarten opened in 1957. They present an idealized image of childhood experience, social expectations, and gender roles, as well as the educational philosophy and methods of the time.
