    No full text
    In this letter dated February 21, 1921, President-elect Warren G. Harding writes to Adolphe Danziger, a Jewish scholar, lawyer and author, to thank him for the poem he wrote honoring Harding titled "Within the Storm." This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career. A significant portion of the collection, and what’s available on Ohio Memory, highlights his 1920 presidential campaign, spanning just before publicly announcing his candidacy to handily defeating Ohio Governor James M. Cox in the election. Correspondents include both Ohio and national businessmen, political figures, and ordinary citizens writing with questions, support, congratulatory notes, and campaign advice. Some of the most interesting insights into the tumultuous political climate in the U.S., the extreme factionalism within the Republican Party in Ohio, and Harding’s campaign strategies are described in letters between Harding and his campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty. Some of the topics addressed include women’s suffrage, Prohibition, the League of Nations, African American representation and issues, and lingering peace negotiations following World War I

    Oral History Interview with Rueben C. Warren

    No full text
    This interview with Rueben Warren, DDS, DrPH, is part of “Moral Histories: Voices and Stories from the Founding Figures of Bioethics,” an oral history project of the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics. Dr. Warren is Dean Emeritus, School of Dentistry, Meharry Medical College and former Director of the National Center for Bioethics and Professor Emeritus of Bioethics at Tuskegee University. He also spent many years working at the Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control. His expertise includes dental health, access to oral healthcare, public health, faith communities, and environmental justice. He is the author of over one hundred journal articles. Dr. Warren discussed the close-knit community of his childhood in the Watts neighborhood of South Central Los Angeles and his higher education experiences at San Francisco State University, Meharry Medical College, Harvard University, and the Interdenominational Theological Center. He described being on the Tuskegee Syphilis Study Legacy Committee, the 1997 apology from President Bill Clinton, and the subsequent establishment of the National Center for Bioethics in Research and Healthcare at Tuskegee University. While director, he shared how he focused on engaging descendants of the U.S. Public Health Service Syphilis Study, established programming with Black church leaders, and developed a bioethics honors program. He described the need for institutions to prove their trustworthiness to gain community trust, particularly in healthcare settings. He discussed working in the Office of Minority Health and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, where he investigated environmental harms and the disproportionate impact on low-income and minority communities. The Covid-19 pandemic occurred during his last years at Tuskegee and he shares that experience as why medical providers and bioethicists should examine the trustworthiness of institutions versus implicating vaccine-hesitant communities. The conversation ends with a comparison of the Human Genome Project to the work of the Diaspora Human Genomic Institute, emphasizing the importance of involving Black scientists and communities in data collection, preservation, and analysis

    Mary Warren letter to Mrs. Bachman, October 4, 1914

    No full text
    Mary Warren wrote this letter to Mrs. Bachman on October 4, 1914, to describe the efforts of her and fellow activists to convince voters to support women's suffrage. She states that they couldn't make a strong enough impression on voters without additional help. She requested Mrs. Bachman's help in the form of sending literature that could help convince voters to support suffrage. 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
