SUMMARY:Second Line of Defense: Grand Rapids Women and the Great War
DESCRIPTION:You have another chance to catch this program and its tremendous visuals! World War I had a surprising impact on women and they\, in turn\, had tremendous impact on the war — far greater than is generally known. This program will tell the story of American women as citizens during the largest wartime mobilization of our young country and dispel myths that women’s lives were led only in their homes. Upon U.S. entry into the war in 1917\, women’s groups across the nation transformed their organizational structures for war work. Led by the Woman’s Committee of the Council of National Defense\, they made contributions that ranged far beyond the war and their traditional gender roles and addressed the nation’s failure to assess serious food\, health\, and labor problems suddenly compromising national security when a huge percentage of American men failed military physicals. Focusing on West Michigan women a hundred years ago\, the program illustrates how they were among midwestern leaders whose pioneering efforts have been too long neglected. Get ahead of history — credit them by joining us in Lowell!
