SUMMARY:Author Talk: Paul Kaplan - New York in the Progressive Era: Cultural Upheaval and Social Reform 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:The years 1890-1920 produced sweeping reforms and profound change in American life and especially in New York State. Reacting to the great inequalities from the Gilded Age\, reformers pressed for laws for better housing\, women’s suffrage\, personal income tax\, labor protections\, and far more. The era saw innovative ways of combatting social issues like the Settlement House movement. An unlikely alliance of reformers and Protestant ministers also passed Prohibition laws. Land preservation and animal rights were considered for the first time. This presentation will take us on a journey of these social movements\, exposing their nuances and little-known dissenting voices. Historic photos\, archived video\, and poetry about and from that period will bring this era alive.

SUMMARY:America's Favorite Holiday Movie: A Look Inside It's a Wonderful Life
DESCRIPTION:Voted the most inspirational movie ever made by the American Film Institute\, Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life has been a beloved Christmas classic for many generations. Yet when the film was released in 1946\, it was a box-office flop—until it was rediscovered through endless airings on local TV stations beginning in the 1970s and on annual Christmas eve broadcasts on NBC starting in 1992. Together we’ll examine the fascinating story of It’s a Wonderful Life\, looking at the challenges of how it was made\, what it says about the problems of post-war America\, and how it became the ultimate portrayal of holiday goodwill and cheer. \nLed by Brian Rose\, retired professor of Communications and Media Studies\, Fordham University \nTo register and receive the link please click: It’s a Wonderful Life

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Scott Seligman - A Second Reckoning: Race\, Injustice\, and the Last Hanging in Annapolis
DESCRIPTION:Join us as author and historian Scott Seligman returns to DOROT to speak about his latest book. A Second Reckoning tells the story of John Snowden\, a Black man accused of the murder of a pregnant white woman in Annapolis\, Maryland\, in 1917. \nDecades after his death\, thanks to tireless efforts\, Snowden was pardoned by the governor of Maryland. A Second Reckoning uses Snowden’s case to bring posthumous pardons into the national conversation about amends for past racial injustices. Mr. Seligman argues that the repeal of racist laws and policies must be augmented by reckoning with America’s judicial past. You won’t want to miss this important discussion. \nTo register and receive the link\, please click: Author Talk
