Women and the Great Depression

dkdanielson — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 10:15:38 -0600

Hi Suzanne - Thanks for including us in this. Glad to see people discussing the topic and not assuming it has "gone away." Your comments made me think back to some of my historical research about women in the Great Depression. Here's actually a good summary of how the women's movement stalled during the Great Depression, yet there are some parallels to what is going on now. http://www.novelguide.com/a/discover/egd_02/egd_02_00550.html.

P.S. I'm with you on the more male caregivers being a big deal. It's an interesting twist. Especially because more people miss work for elder care than child care and it's going to be am even bigger issue. I'm thinking that maybe it's son's out of work? having to move back home? or Single/Divorced? Also, I note that my brother will have the responsibility because he lives near my parents. So, it may be a geographic thing.

I too feel that "saving"

cluelesscrafter — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 09:59:33 -0500

I too feel that "saving" takes on a patronizing stance on the matter. Can you elaborate a bit more on the rest of the article's language? How was this tone manifested (or not) throughout?

Best panel in the four conferences I've attended

squaregirl — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 14:35:45 -0500

I just wanted to express my opinion that was the best panel by far, and I sincerely hope we can bring more international women to share their stories next year!

Knitting for a cause

moonfever0 — Fri, 08 May 2009 23:23:39 -0500

I remember knitters gathering squares for quilts after natural disasters and the "wombs on washington" project. Sorry I missed this date for submission, but I will definitely knit for the next one.

BTW, I just started a knitting group on BlogHer:
