When our representatives are making important
decisions that impact all of our lives I believe it is important to ask
one basic question before making
those decisions, Is this good for
the children? Just imagine what our world would be
like if that question was asked prior to making decisions about going to
war, the environment, education or healthcare.

1. Commentary by Elaine B. Holtz: We
originally scheduled to be in
conversation with Mary Norman
about two of the most revered
women in Christianity, Mary
mother of Jesus and Mary
Magdalene, disciple of Jesus.
However, our phone connection
failed, and we needed to enter
improvisation mode. Today,
December 12th, the Virgin of
Guadalupe is celebrated by
Catholics. The day has been
declared a national holiday in
Mexico. Devotees honor the day
when Virgin Mary made an
appearance to a young man on
this day in 1531. Even though it
is a national holiday, most
companies and organizations
organize masses and feasts for
their employees.
I am reading some of my poems to
keep in this spirit of the
Prince of Peace, who is
celebrated this Christmas
season, and mix in
songs with this in mind.
December 14, 1961 – President’s
Commission on the Status of
Women is established to examine
discrimination against women and
ways to eliminate it.
December 14, 1985 – Wilma
Mankiller is sworn in as
principal chief of the Cherokee
Nation of Oklahoma – the first
woman in modern history to lead
a major Native American tribe.
December 17, 1993 – Judith Rodin
is named president of Univ. of
Pennsylvania, the first woman to
head an Ivy League institution.
Herstory Birthdays:
December 14, 1897 (1995) –
Margaret Chase Smith, first
woman elected to both houses
of Congress (R-ME), serving
8 years in the House of
Representatives and
twenty-four in the Senate,
first in Senate to challenge
Senator Joseph McCarthy’s
anti-communist crusade.
December 16, 1844 (1928) –
Fanny Garrison Villard,
suffragist, and
philanthropist, provided
financial support for
certified milk and wholesome
food in Diet Kitchen,
provided funds for Barnard
College, Radcliffe College,
and Hampton Institute,
supported peace and woman
suffrage with street
speeches and parades,
collaborated with the
Women’s Peace Party.
Woman’s Peace Party (WPP),
American organization that
was established as a result
of a three-day peace meeting
organized by Jane Addams and
other feminists in response
to the beginning of World
War I in Europe in 1914. The
conference, held in January
1915 in Washington, D.C.,
brought together women from
diverse organizations who
unanimously agreed on most
issues under discussion,
including the call for
limitation of arms,
mediation of the European
conflict, and the removal of
the economic causes of war.
The peace and suffrage
movements were definitively
united when a plank calling
for the vote for women was
successfully added to the
party platform.
December 16, 1901 (1978) –
Margaret Mead, renowned
cultural anthropologist,
author, lecturer. Famous for
the quote “Never doubt that
a small group of thoughtful,
committed, citizens can
change the world. Indeed, it
is the only thing that ever
has.”

December 17, 1853 (1945) –
Harriet Taylor Upton, joined
suffrage movement in 1890
when converted by Susan
Anthony, became treasurer of
the National American Woman
Suffrage Association,
testified in Congress,
managed suffrage campaigns
and ratification drive in
Ohio, held positions in the
Republican Party, defeated
for Congress at age 70.
The National American
Woman Suffrage
Association (NAWSA) was
an organization formed
on February 18, 1890, to
advocate in favor of
women's suffrage in the
United States. It was
created by the merger of
two existing
organizations, the
National Woman Suffrage
Association (NWSA) and
the American Woman
Suffrage Association
(AWSA).
