SUMMARY:WLA/WHS Scholarly Series: A Rocky Road: The Struggle for Rights in America — Dr. Camesha Scruggs
DESCRIPTION:In the 16th year of collaboration between Wilton Library and the Wilton Historical Society\, the scholarly lecture series will focus on the theme of “A Rocky Road: The Struggle for Rights in America.” During this program at Wilton Library\, Dr. Camesha Scruggs\, Professor of History at Central Connecticut State University\, will discuss the role of children and domestic workers as change agents in the Civil Rights Movement which in popular memory focuses on individuals such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks. However\, children are an integral part of the movement. From participants in school desegregation efforts to domestic workers’ contributions to local boycotts\, we see their roles are vital to advancing the cause of civil rights. \nScruggs is a recent Ph.D. recipient in history from the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst\, and the author of Kids and Kitchens: The Role of Children and Domestic Workers in the Civil Rights Movement. A native Texan\, she received a BA and MA in history from Texas Southern University. Her research fields are 20th century US\, African American Public History and Gender and Empire. She serves on the executive boards of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History and the National Collaborative for Women’s History Sites. She performs volunteer work for various community preservation initiatives\, bringing stories to broader audiences. Her current project examines the lived experiences of Texas African-American women domestic servants in the early 20th century and how interventions from social\, civic\, government and higher education institutions impact the occupation. \nThe moderator is Max Gabrielson. A reception will follow the talk. There is no charge to attend\, but donations are welcome. Visit the Wilton Library website for additional dates\, topic and speaker details\, and registration. Registration is required for each individual session. \nAdditional dates:  \nMarch 12: US Women Demand Equity: From Voting Rights to Work Conditions — Dr. Aimee Loiselle\nMarch 26:  The Long Road toward LGBTQ+ Rights and Equality in the United States — Dr. Kelly Marino

SUMMARY:WLA/WHS Scholarly Series: A Rocky Road: The Struggle for Rights in America – Dr. Aimee Loiselle
DESCRIPTION:US Women Demand Equity: From Voting Rights to Work Conditions – Dr. Aimee Loiselle\, Central Connecticut State University. \nIn the 16th year of collaboration between Wilton Library and Wilton Historical Society\, the scholarly lecture series entitled “A Rocky Road: The Struggle for Rights in America” will focus on how women from different backgrounds and regions have pursued equity by different means. \nDuring this program\, Aimee Loiselle\, an assistant professor at Central Connecticut State University\, will discuss how even the suffrage movement and passage of the 19th Amendment\, granting women the federal right to vote in 1920\, emerged from many tactics heavily shaped by race\, class\, and geography. Its passage fueled more efforts by women\, both to use the vote and to highlight its inadequacy for addressing problems like unfair work conditions and poverty. Middle-class white women\, Black women\, and working-class women had points of collaboration and division throughout the 20th century as they demanded equity on different terms. \nDr. Loiselle is an award-winning historian. She studies modern US history with an interest in women workers and attention to intersections of gender\, race\, class\, and citizenship. \nThe moderator is Max Gabrielson. A reception will follow the talk. There is no charge to attend\, but donations are welcome. Visit the Wilton Library website for additional dates\, topic and speaker details\, and registration. Registration is required for each individual session. \nAdditional dates: \nMarch 26:  The Long Road toward LGBTQ+ Rights and Equality in the United States — Dr. Kelly Marino

SUMMARY:WLA/WHS Scholarly Series: Innovation\, Disruption\, Revolution: The Impact of Technological Advancement — John Kao
DESCRIPTION:The Future of Innovation — John Kao\, Turing Fellow at Yale’s Digital Media Center \nIn the 17th year of Wilton Library and Wilton Historical Society’s collaboration\, the scholarly lecture series focuses on the theme of “Innovation\, Disruption\, Revolution: The Impact of Technological Advancement.” In this lecture\, John Kao presents a contemporary view of what innovation is\, where it is going\, and how advanced technology is reshaping its foundations. \nThe current state of innovation does not\, for the most part\, fit new business and societal realities. Innovation remains essential\, especially in these turbulent times. But\, to remain relevant\, evolution is necessary. Its very definition needs clarification and reimagination. The future of innovation is intimately entwined with the rapid advance of technology. Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT\, innovation marketplaces\, and augmented reality are only some of the influences that will shape future innovation practices. And\, they raise the central question of how humans and machines will renegotiate the trade space for creativity\, entrepreneurship…and innovation. \nFor the past 25 years\, Kao worked with the ideas of innovation\, creativity\, entrepreneurship and leadership. Dubbed “Mr. Creativity” by The Economist\, his work is varied. This includes 14 years at Harvard Business School\, visiting appointments at the MIT Media Lab and attendance at the US Naval Postgraduate School\, among others. He also graced Hollywood\, Broadway\, the music industry\, politics and national security and Silicon Valley with his expertise. \nKao is currently the Turing Fellow at Yale’s Digital Media Center\, a Visiting Fellow at Yale Engineering School and a Yale entrepreneur-in-residence. He co-founded and is Chairman Emeritus of ThayerMahan\, Inc.\, a leader in maritime intelligence. With a BA and MD from Yale and a Harvard MBA\, Kao is also the author of Jamming and Innovation Nation: How America Is Losing Its Innovation Edge\, Why It Matters and What We Can Do To Get It Back. \nThis series is sponsored by Laureen Mody. The moderator is Max Gabrielson. A reception follows the talk and there is no charge to attend\, but donations are welcome. Visit the Wilton Library website for required registration as well as additional dates\, topics\, and speaker details. Call to register at 203.762.6334.
