Emma Saunders-Hastings: Philanthropy and Democracy
Overview & Shownotes
Inquiries around the ethics of philanthropy might seem pretty cut-and-dry at first glance. Are the people receiving donations better off than they were before they received help? Even if the answer to that question is yes, political theorist Emma Saunders-Hastings argues that it’s not the only critical question we should be asking about philanthropy. On this episode of the podcast, we discuss her new book, Private Virtues, Public Vices: Philanthropy and Democratic Equality.

Saunders Theatre Program collection, 1914-1964
This collection contains programs and newsclipping reviews of various theatrical performances appearing in Little Rock between 1914-1962. Programs include plays, minstrel shows, movies, vaudeville shows, operas, musicals, recitals, concerts, follies, revues, local amateur shows, lectures, ballets, magic shows, readings, etc. These shows were performed by both local groups and traveling troupes. Theatres include the Kempner, Little Rock High School, and Robinson Auditorium. The newsclipping reviews are from the Arkansas Gazette, Arkansas Democrat, and the Memphis Commercial Appeal (traveling troupe usually played in Memphis before coming to Little Rock). Also included are two notebooks by Saunders: 1) List of performances at the Kempner and Robinson Auditorium, 1917-1958, and (2) personal reviews of performances, 1926-1933. There are programs (i.e., New York, Chicago, St. Louis, etc.) from performances Saunders attended in other cities. The collection also contains two scrapbooks, c. 1900-1913 covering early moving pictures and movie stars, and theatrical performances in St. Louis, Missouri. The scrapbooks were started by Mattie Dicks, mother-in-law of Earl Saunders. They were continued by Margarite Dicks Saunders while her family lived in St. Louis before moving to Little Rock.UALR.0104 A-107

The scrapbooks were started by Mattie Dicks, mother-in-law of Earl Saunders. They were continued by Margarite Dicks Saunders while her family lived in St. Louis before moving to Little Rock. Born in Stuttgart, Arkansas October 20, 1892, Earl Saunders, Sr. was raised in Little Rock. Saunders married Margarite Dicks and they had one son, Earl Saunders, Jr. After working for Becks, a retail store, Saunders joined the S. M. Brooks Advertising firm. He became vice-president and stayed with the company 44 years until his death May 2, 1962. One of his responsibilities at S. M. Brooks Advertising was to prepare the programs for the theatrical performances appearing in Little Rock. Saunders served as President of the Young Business men's Association, Director of the 10th District Federation of America Advertising, and Director of the Salvation Army Board. His life-long infatuation with the circus and theatre is best characterized by his habit of watching the circus trains unload at 3:00 in the morning and his booking of four seats on the second row of every show which came to Little Rock.
