SUMMARY:Casa Italiana at NYU Hosts Triangle Fire Memorial Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:NYU Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò and Remember the Triangle Fire Coalition \n\n\n\nPresent \n\n\n\nCollective Ribbon:The Interwoven Voices of the Triangle Fire Memorial \n\n\n\nOctober 9\, 2023 – December 15\, 2023 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAn Exhibition Curated byRichard Joon Yoo and Uri WegmanCo-designers of the Triangle Fire Memorial \n\n\n\nSpecial Note: Exhibition includes a sewing machine that survived the 1911 Triangle Fire \n\n\n\nOn viewOctober 9\, 2023 – March 29\, 2024Mon-Fri 10-6 \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nA permanent memorial for the victims of the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire is being erected on the site of the fire near Washington Square\, more than a century after the fire and neglect killed 146 workers\, mainly young immigrant women of Italian and Jewish descent. The “Collective Ribbon” exhibition tells the story of a unique participatory process in the design of the memorial. Our community of people from all walks of life came together and sewed a long ribbon made of hundreds of pieces of fabric. Gathered across long rows of sewing tables\, the participants created a tapestry of personal fragments\, stories and memories of the Triangle Fire. The texture of this collective ribbon is now etched into the steel of the permanent memorial for the Triangle Fire\, making a lasting reminder of the many individual voices and stories that were\, and still are\, interwoven with the story and the legacy of the Triangle Fire. The exhibition offers a glimpse into some of the stories and exchanges that unfolded during the making of the ribbon\, and the role of the ribbon as a communal act of commemoration\, linking the present to the 1911 Triangle \n\n\n\n\n\nOn view at:Casa Italiana Zerilli-MarimòNew York University24 West 12th Street(btw 5th and 6th Ave)New York\, NY 10011 \n\n\n\nMore information at www.casaitaliananyu.org/events/collective-ribbon

SUMMARY:Breaking the Glass Ceiling: Eleanor Roosevelt and Frances Perkins Embrace Politics and Power for Women
DESCRIPTION:Roosevelt House\, together with the New York City Chapter of the Living New Deal\, is pleased to present a discussion of the women who supported Eleanor Roosevelt and Frances Perkins in their path breaking endeavors to rescue the nation and create a better future. The panel will feature preeminent Eleanor Roosevelt biographer Blanche Wiesen Cook and Roosevelt House historian Deborah Gardner\, and will be moderated by professor emerita of American history at Columbia University Alice Kessler-Harris. \n\n\n\nWhen Eleanor Roosevelt and Frances Perkins went to Washington in March 1933\, they did so with the support of millions of women who had voted for FDR’s promise of a “New Deal”—including those in the political and social welfare networks with whom they had worked for more than two decades. Among the more significant of those groups were the leaders of the women’s divisions of the Democratic party\, the Women’s City Club\, the League of Women Voters\, peace activists\, and the Women’s Trade Union League. Incoming Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins\, who shared many of Eleanor Roosevelt’s interests and values\, was also connected\, through her time with the New York State Industrial Commission\, to the leading consumer protection groups and advocates for retirement and employment protection plans. \n\n\n\nSecretary Perkins supported the women from networks who were already working in the Department of Labor\, and brought along others\, who helped her launch some of the New Deal’s most consequential programs—which the First Lady then promoted in her speeches and columns\, and during her travels. Those groundbreaking initiatives included: the Civilian Conservation Corps\, Social Security\, minimum wage\, worker’s compensation\, unemployment insurance\, and a ban on child labor. \n\n\n\nBlanche Wiesen Cook (’62) is Distinguished Professor of History and Women’s Studies at John Jay College and the CUNY Graduate Center\, and former vice-president for research at the American Historical Association. Her definitive three-volume biography of Eleanor Roosevelt was called “monumental and inspirational…[a] grand biography” by the New York Times. Volume One\, on the Times bestseller list for three months\, received many awards\, including the 1992 Biography Prize from the Los Angeles Times\, and the Lambda Literary Award. Volume Two was also a Times bestseller. She has been a guest commentator about Eleanor Roosevelt on numerous news programs as well as Ken Burns’ seven-part PBS documentary series\, The Roosevelts: An Intimate History. \n\n\n\nDeborah Gardner has served as the Roosevelt House Historian and Curator since 2010. A Hunter College staff member since 2001\, she assisted in the development of Roosevelt House’s new role as the college’s public policy institute. She is an expert on the history of the Roosevelts in New York and their New Deal associates\, among them Frances Perkins\, and has curated numerous exhibits on Roosevelt history and designed tours of the house as well as at New Deal sites in the city. She has published on legal history\, women’s history\, and the history of the city\, and served on the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission. She is an active member of the New York City chapter of the Living New Deal. \n\n\n\nAlice Kessler-Harris is R. Gordon Hoxie Professor Emerita of American History at Columbia University\, Professor Emerita in the Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, and former president of the Organization of American Historians. She specializes in the history of American labor and the comparative and interdisciplinary exploration of women and gender. Her books include: In Pursuit of Equity: Women\, Men and the Quest for Economic Citizenship in Twentieth Century America (2001); A Woman’s Wage: Historical Meanings and Social Consequences (1990); A Difficult Woman: The Challenging Life and Times of Lillian Hellman (2012); and\, as co-editor\, Protecting Women: Labor Legislation in Europe\, Australia\, and the United States\, 1880-1920 (1995). In 2020\, she was honored with the “Intelligence and Courage Award” from the Frances Perkins Center. \n\n\n\nMore information and RSVP at www.roosevelthouse.hunter.cuny.edu
