Summary

In "The Education and Employment of Women," Josephine Elizabeth Grey Butler examines the manifold barriers that have historically hindered women's social and economic participation. Written in a compelling narrative style that combines both empirical research and passionate advocacy, the book articulates the necessity for women's education as a foundation for their autonomy and contributions to society. Contextually situated within the late 19th-century feminist movement, Butler's work reflects a burgeoning awareness of gender disparities and a call to action for reform in educational policies and professional opportunities. Josephine Elizabeth Grey Butler, a prominent suffragist and social reformer, drew upon her own experiences and the broader cultural milieu that questioned women's roles during her time. Her commitment to women's rights, influenced by her involvement in various educational and philanthropic organizations, propelled her to challenge the status quo. Butler's extensive background in social reform and education significantly informs the arguments presented in her book, making her a credible voice in the discourse surrounding women's rights. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in gender studies, social justice, and the historical trajectory of women's rights. Butler's incisive arguments and rich historical context provide an invaluable understanding of the struggles for women's education and the implications for contemporary society. Readers will be inspired by Butler's eloquence and dedication, making it a vital contribution to the discourse on gender equality.

    Potlatch as Pedagogy - Learning...

    In 1884, the Canadian government enacted a ban on the potlatch, the foundational ceremony of the Haida people. The tradition, which determined social structure, transmitted cultural knowledge, and redistributed wealth, was seen as a cultural impediment to the government’s aim of assimilation. 
    The tradition did not die, however; the knowledge of the ceremony was kept alive by the Elders through other events until the ban was lifted. In 1969, a potlatch was held. The occasion: the raising of a totem pole carved by Robert Davidson, the first the community had seen in close to 80 years. From then on, the community publicly reclaimed, from the Elders who remained to share it, the knowledge that has almost been lost. 
    Sara Florence Davidson, Robert’s daughter, would become an educator. Over the course of her own education, she came to see how the traditions of the Haida practiced by her father — holistic, built on relationships, practical, and continuous — could be integrated into contemporary educational practices. From this realization came the roots for this book.
