Jen Deaderick presents She The People

Main Library, Community Room, 449 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02138

SHE THE PEOPLE: A Graphic History of Uprisings, Breakdowns, Setbacks, Revolts, and Enduring Hope on the Unfinished Road to Women's Equality, is an illustrated history of women’s citizenship in the US from 1776 to now. Journalist, historian, and activist, Jen Deaderick takes on the campaign for change by offering a cheekily illustrated, sometimes sarcastic, and all-too-true account of women's evolving rights and citizenship. She takes readers on a walk down the ERA's rocky road to become part of our Constitution by highlighting changes in the legal status of women alongside the significant cultural and social influences of the time. Women's history is revealed as an integral part of U.S. history, and not a tangential sideline. Jen Deaderick has written about gender and citizenship for the New York Times, the Huffington Post, Experience, and Dame. She is also a regular contributor on WGBH’s news show, Greater Boston. Since 2008, she has run the largest Equal Rights Amendment page on Facebook. This event is co-sponsored by the Cambridge Women's Commission as part of our Women's History Month programming.

Session 2: Bullet Journaling for Productivity and Time Management

Main Library, 449 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02138

Bullet journals combine creativity with structure in a flexible format that includes list making, planning, and journaling. This workshop will focus on the organization and time management aspects of bullet journaling. We will also cover how the Bullet Journal method emphasizes intentionality, mindfulness, and self-expression. Come learn about these wellness aspects of bullet journaling and how it can increase your time management skills, self-reflection, and habit-tracking. Greta Kuriger Suiter is the processing archivist at MIT’s Department of Distinctive Collections where she arranges and describes archival materials for ease of researcher use. Suiter has been using and teaching bullet journaling since 2017 and is often trying new ways of integrating bullet journaling into her work and life. She is also an active Wikimedian and has hosted many Wikipedia edit-a-thons at MIT. She received her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Art History from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and George Mason University respectively, and her Master’s of Library and Information Science from the University of Washington in Seattle.
