Monday Lecture Series – October 2020

Women in the Nixon Administration: Defining Simple Justice

Lecturer: Yi Shun Lai, MFA

In 1969, during President Richard Nixon’s second press conference as president, journalist Vera Glazer asked if he was planning on doing better than appointing thee women per 200 high-level Cabinet and policy-making appointments he’d made thus far in his administration.

This question, set against the backdrop of Betty Friedan’s Feminine Mystique and the formation of the National Organization for Women, would give rise to a task force that would eventually more than triple the number of women hired into significant positions in Nixon’s administration, and give rise to the first female FBI agents and generals.

Yi Shun Lai wrote the Nixon Foundation and Presidential Library’s most recent permanent exhibit about the task force leading to these results, which was colloquially referred to as “A Matter of Simple Justice.” In this talk, she’ll share what she learned over her deep dive into the project. Attendees will learn about the “Women’s Program,” and get a rare view of what it’s like to put together a museum exhibit.

This lecture will be presented online, offered to registered guests at 1pm ET.

Space is limited—make your reservations today online here or call 585.279.7490.

Individual lectures are $25 each. NOTE: The link to the online lecture will be sent to registrants the Friday before the scheduled lecture.
