One of the first women in the US to earn a PhD\, she went on to become the first superintendent of New York’s Reformatory for\nWomen at Bedford Hills. Subsequently\, she became the first female Commissioner of Corrections for New York City\, where she quelled a riot and instituted reform. She spent the final decade of her career directing the Bureau of Social Hygiene\, a privately funded think tank committed to combating commercialized sex and curbing the spread of sexually transmitted infections. While there\, she conducted research for the first comprehensive study of female sexuality. \nBut Dr. Davis did not only blaze new trails for herself. At every stage of her career\, she also advanced equality for women as a group. At the Bedford Reformatory\, she provided educational\nand recreational opportunities for the inmates; she also hired a cohort of highly educated women to work as physicians and psychologists. While she tackled what one colleague called “a man’s job” as Commissioner of Corrections\, she also advocated women’s voting rights as an officer of the national suffrage organization. Finally\, by publishing the results of her extensive study of women’s sexual desires and experiences\, she redefined the parameters of “normal” female sexuality. \nBased on extensive research in Katharine Davis’s personal papers\, institutional records\, and historic publications\, this presentation about an important—but overlooked—figure in US history will highlight how she advanced women’s equality in the workplace\, at the polls\, and in the bedroom.

Anthony\, Spiritualism\, and Women’s Rights in Lily Dale\, New York DESCRIPTION:Lily Dale\, New York\, was founded at the apex of the fight for women’s suffrage in the United States\, and unsurprisingly that struggle was in the hearts and on the minds of the radical feminists who co-founded this fascinating intentional Spiritualist community. Spiritualism’s Place: Reformers\, Seekers\, and Seances in Lily Dale reveals the role that the radical (and conservative) women’s rights activists like Susan B. Anthony\, Anna Howard Shaw\, and others played in Lily Dale–and the role that Lily Dale played in Progressive-era politics\, including suffrage and Temperance. As an intentional community devoted to Spiritualist beliefs and practices\, Lily Dale brings together multiple strands in the social and religious history of New York and the United States over the past 150 years: feminism\, social reform\, utopianism\, and new religious movements. \nIn this event the authors of Spiritualism’s Place will discuss the intersections of women’s rights\, radical religion\, and Temperance in New York. As a nexus of Progressive-era change\, Lily Dale is a fascinating case study\, a place and moment in these histories\, and Spiritualism’s Place captures the vibes and the venue. \nCopies of the book\, Spiritualism’s Place\, will be available to purchase at the Museum Store and the book signing will follow the presentation. \nMembers $25 SOLD OUT\nMember Special $50 (includes your reservation and book) SOLD OUT\nNon-Members $30 SOLD OUT\nMember – Virtual $25\nNon-Member – Virtual $30 \nClick HERE to make your reservation.

Their purpose was to challenge a New York law that allowed men but not women to go top free\, arguing that the law was discriminatory. In the subsequent trial the judge ignored their claim of discrimination and instead ruled that their protest was an act of free of speech. He failed to address the law’s inequality. The women persisted with their challenge and at a larger picnic in 1989 ten women were arrested for being topless. This time they argued on the grounds of unequal treatment\, which failed\, and they were convicted. Their aim all along had been to challenge the law’s constitutionality in a higher court through an appeal\, which their conviction allowed them to do. Their appeal was upheld\, and their convictions overturned\, although the law was never repealed. This talk will tell the full story. \nREGISTRATION INFORMATION \n$250 in-person season pass\n$225 virtual season pass\n$35 in-person individual lecture\n$35 virtual individual lecture URL:https://susanb.org/event/feminist-change-makers-rochesters-topfree-seven/ LOCATION:Anthony Museum Carriage House\, 19 Madison St\, Rochester\, NY\, 14608\, United States CATEGORIES:2024,Lecture,Lectures & Presentations,Public Event ORGANIZER;CN="National Susan B.

This month’s lecture\, “Enforcing Gender at the Polls: Transing Voters and Women’s Suffrage before the American Civil War\,” is presented by Andrew Wender Cohen\, Professor of History at Syracuse University and Senior Research Associate at the Campbell Public Affairs Institute\, and Carol Faulkner\, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and Professor of History at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University. \nBefore Susan B. Anthony was arrested for voting in 1872\, individuals deemed women by society dressed in men’s clothes and went to the polls\, defying the gender divide that characterized the nineteenth-century American electoral system. Based on more than seventy newspaper articles\, and twenty-eight distinct cases\, this presentation explores the significance of these illicit voters for American democracy and debates over women’s suffrage in the decades before the Civil War. \nRegistration for in-person and zoom attendance is still available.
