[Oe List ...] Women of the World

[Beret Griffith]

Thank you Frank! I have an image of you working on the sixth floor, surrounded by stacks of slide carousels and tapes taken from mildew covered boxes.

 

Folks, there is a lot of work to be done on the collection in Chicago. Consider taking time to help out.

The Archives Project presents WOMEN OF THE WORLD.

Around 1985 Sunny Walker, over a period of a year, wrote, narrated and produced this presentation using a carousel projector.  The tape she recorded was found in the archives along with many of the original photos.  Using modern technology, the program was enhanced with other photos from the  archives and made into a short movie.  The movie has been posted on YouTube for your consideration.

This is one of several projects being looked at by the Archives group.  Any contributions toward that effort will be greatly appreciated.

Love the earth and sun and the animals . . . [and] the people, read these leaves
in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have
been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own
soul; and your very flesh shall be a great poem. 
           ~Walt Whitman, from Preface to Leaves of Grass, p. 8
