SUMMARY:Department Stores and the Black Freedom Struggle: Workers\, Consumers\, and Civil Rights
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, based on her new book\, Department Stores and the Black Freedom Struggle: Workers\, Consumers\, and Civil Rights\, Dr. Traci Parker will reveal the African American movement to dismantle racially discriminatory hiring and customer service practices in department stores. She shows how blacks leveraged their collective labor and purchasing power to fully realize middle-class citizenship\, a status dependent on equal treatment as consumers as well as workers. \nDepartment stores (like Connecticut’s G. Fox & Co.) were epicenters of American consumption and modernity in the twentieth century. They were places of consumption\, leisure\, and work\, as well as sites for self-fashioning\, self-expression\, and human satisfaction. They enthroned consumption as the route to democracy and citizenship and invited everyone—regardless of race\, gender\, age\, class\, and country of origin—to enter\, browse\, and purchase often superfluous material goods. But even as department stores celebrated democracy\, they were\, in fact\, Jim Crow institutions designed to satisfy the needs and desires of middle-class whites\, albeit with an ambiguous color line. \nAfrican Americans\, therefore\, were initially hired only in menial positions\, though a few eventually moved up to white-collar jobs in sales and in the office. Meanwhile\, African American customers were welcome to shop\, but were provided uneven\, unequal service and found their movements and participation in the usual shopping “experience” severely constrained. They were routinely refused service at lunch counters\, restaurants\, and beauty shops. They were forbidden use of dressing rooms and restrooms\, were prohibited from trying on and returning clothes\, and could be arbitrarily refused entrance or service at any moment. \nFree and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served. Let us know you’re coming by emailing rsvp@chs.org. \nQuestions? Contact Natalie Belanger\, Adult Programs Manager\, at natalie_belanger@chs.org. \nAbout the Speaker\nTraci Parker holds a Ph.D. in History from the University of Chicago. She is currently an assistant professor of Afro-American Studies at the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst. Her work focuses on African American history\, gender\, labor\, and capitalism.

SUMMARY:“Why did  Eleanor Roosevelt visit Beatrice Fox Auerbach at Auerfarm?”: A Presentation by Historian Tracey Wilson
DESCRIPTION:This presentation by West Hartford Historian Dr. Tracey Wilson explores the friendship between First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and G. Fox C.E.O Beatrice Fox Auerbach\, and is co-sponsored by the Noah Webster House and West Hartford Historical Society. \n“Both women were strong\, independent humanitarians who shared many of the same beliefs\,” said Wilson. “Over the years they stayed in touch through visits and by exchanging 187 letters.” Their correspondence reveals both the mundane—scheduling visits\, thank yous for farm fresh eggs from Auerfarm—and the more profound connection between two women who were leaders and public figures and understood the difficulties of being pioneers. \nFrom 1946 to 1962\, the First Lady of the United States\, Eleanor Roosevelt\, and the First Lady of Hartford\, Beatrice Fox Auerbach\, developed a friendship that resonated with visits\, letters\, and advice. Find out more about the women on whose shoulders we stand today as Dr. Wilson chronicles how these two female leaders interacted in the 1950s and 1960s.  In one letter from February 1951\, Eleanor Roosevelt wrote to Beatrice Fox Auerbach to tell her about a young Australian artist named Sylvia Davis Patricelli. As a result\, G. Fox & Company sponsored an exhibit of Patricelli’s work\, opened by Roosevelt\, the same year. Later\, Patricelli painted portraits of both Roosevelt and Auerbach. The Patricelli painting of Eleanor Roosevelt will be brought out of private collection and displayed the night of the lecture. Patricelli’s self-portrait\, in the collection of the Noah Webster House & West Hartford Historical Society\, and a copy of the portrait of Beatrice Fox Auerbach will also be on display. The artist’s daughter\, Susan Regan\, will be in attendance to recall her memory of her mother’s portrait painting sessions at Auerfarm. \n$5 for CMCH and Noah Webster House members │ $10 non-members │ reservations requested at (860) 236-5621 x238 or rsvp@chs.org \nTracey Wilson is a teacher of US History at Conard High School. She also serves as the town historian of West Hartford. In 2009\, she won the Gilder Lehrman History Teacher of the Year for Connecticut. In that same year\, she won the Olmsted Prize for Excellence in Secondary School Teaching from Williams College. She earned her Ph.D. from Brown University in 1993.
