    Ida B. Wells-Barnett letter to Lucile Atcherson, October 1, 1914

    No full text
    In October 1914, Ida B. Wells-Barnett, a journalist and leader in the early Civil Rights movement, wrote this letter to Lucile Atcherson, a leader in the Ohio women's suffrage movement and executive secretary for the Franklin County Woman Suffrage Associatino. Wells-Barnett, writing from Chicago, asks in the letter how she can help in the fight for suffrage following a request from Mrs. Jamison for Wells-Barnett's help in garnering enthusiasm for the movement from African American women. Wells-Barnett's suffrage club in Chicago could not spare money to fund her travel, so she requests money from Atcherson for the train. Wells-Barnett asks Atcherson to respond if the plan for the trip is satisfactory. The Franklin County Woman Suffrage Association was formed in 1912, after the Ohio Constitutional Convention elected to bring to a vote the question of removing the words "white male" from the state constitution with regard to voting rights. Headquartered in the Chamber of Commerce building in Columbus, Ohio, the organization put out regular publications, organized public speeches and meetings, distributed literature and held parades in support of the suffrage movement. Women's suffrage in Ohio was defeated in a special election in 1912 and again in 1914 and 1916 before a resolution narrowly passed in 1917 allowing municipal voting by women in Columbus. In 1920, the 19th Amendment passed, extending the vote to women and prohibiting state and federal government from denying suffrage on the basis of sex

    Canon Barnett and the first thirty years of Toynbee Hall

    No full text
    PhDThis thesis is a study of the changing role which Toynbee Hall, the first university settlement, played in East London between 1884 and 1914. The first chapter presents a brief biography of Sainiel Augustus Barnett, the founder and first warden of the settlement, and analyzes his social thought in relation to the beliefs which were current in Britain during the period. The second chapter discusses the founding of the settlement, its organization, structure and the aims which underlay its early work. The third chapter, concentrating on three residents, C.R. Ashbee, .H. Beveridge and T. Edmund Harvey, shows the way in which subsequent settlement workers reformulated these aims In accordance with their own social and economic views. The subsequent chapters discuss the accomplishments of the settlement in various fields. The fourth shows that Toynbee Hall's educational program, which was largely an attempt to work out Matthew Arnold's theory of culture, left little impact on the life of East London. The fifth chapter discusses the settlement residents' ineffectual attempts to establish contact with working men's organizations. The final chapter seeks to demonstrate that In the field of philanthropy the residents were far more successful than in any other sphere in adapting the settlement to changing social thought

    Strategist, organize thyself

    Thousands of scholars and hundreds of millions of dollars are devoted to the study of management. What has society gained from this significant and ongoing allocation of scarce talent and money? As many of our most senior scholars have noted, less than we would like. We can do better. Through an organized process, we can develop more managerial knowledge with fewer resources. In this essay, I outline two suggestions -- roadmaps and TOMCat -- that could organize and advance management knowledge and bring us into better fit with our decreasingly munificent environment.Peer reviewe

    Sorry to (Not) Burst Your Bubble: The Influence of Reputation Rankings on Perceptions of Firms

    No full text
    We measure the influence of reputation rankings on individuals’ perceptions of firms. Through experimental design, we vary whether and how subjects are exposed to a reputation ranking alongside other information about a firm. We find that rankings influence perceptions when they are negative and congruent with other information about the firm. These findings help explain how a firm’s reputation can change even if its characteristics remain constant and why change in a firm’s characteristics can be slow to produce change in its reputation
