2 FROM THE PRESIDENT October 2008 The times they are a-changin Bob Dylan Last month I began this message with the faux Chinese curse may you live in interesting times. Well the events of the last 30 days certainly illustrate why this may be considered a curse. One thing is certain, in the immortal words of the bard Bob Dylan, the times they are a-changin. We will all be called upon to do more with less. Those who live and practice law within the path of Hurricane Ike have it even tougher. The State Bar of Texas is coordinating efforts to assist victims of Ike. They are providing a practice manual and special 3.5 hour training sessions for attorneys who are able to assist. No particular area of practice is required. Please go to the State Bar website, to learn more about how you can help. All of us constantly battle to find a workable balance between family, career, and community. What that means for each of us is different. Family may include children, aging parents, spouses, siblings, extended families through divorce and marriage, and even today s substitute for family, very close friends. Career may include a full time law practice, part-time law practice or a non-law practice professional position. Community may involve churches, schools, medical support groups, interest based clubs, and community service organizations. These lists are by no means exhaustive, but there is one thing all have in common, and that is they make demands on our time. There never seems to be enough time in the day to get it all done. I recently came across an article that identified the top challenges facing the professional woman based on a survey of working women. The article also suggested solutions. I want to share a few of these with you. One of the biggest challenges is needing to be in two places at the same time. The suggested solution is to make technology work for you. Today s wireless products no longer keep us chained to a PC. More people connect to the internet through web-enabled cell phones and other small mobile devices than through a PC. Although cautioned against using these devices while driving due to the increased risk of an accident, they enable a lot of work to get done while sitting in the airport, waiting in a professional s office, or waiting for a child to finish an activity and need transportation. Another big challenge identified is getting you and everyone for whom you are responsible where they need to be on time and ready to participate. The suggested solution is to get organized the night before. Figure out what hangs you up in the morning and organize the night before to make sure things go smoothly. This could include laying out clothes, packing lunches, and packing brief cases and backpacks the night before. I personally always make myself fill the car up on the way home, no matter how tired I am. You can never predict how heavy traffic will be or how long the line at the gas station will be first thing in the morning. To see more challenges and solutions go to I ll be sharing more tips for achieving balance in the newsletters to come. In the meantime, please share your best strategies for achieving balance with me at rkherrell@sbcglobal.net. I would love to put them in an article or tip column for the newsletter. Best regards; Rande Herrell President, TCWLA 2

6 Thanking the Iron-Jawed Angels By Laurie Higginbotham (Helena Hill Weed, Norwalk, Conn. Serving 3 day sentence in D.C. prison for carrying banner, Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. ) Women in Saudi Arabia can t do it. Neither can women in Vatican City. In Lebanon, they can t do it without proof of education. There are places on this earth that we all share where women do not have that most basic of human rights, the right to vote. Like any right worth having, it has never been easily won. But like all societies complacently rich with freedom, many Americans have forgotten the price paid by women only two generations ago for the right to vote in the United States. If you ask most Americans what they picture when thinking of a suffragette, they would probably say a woman in a long, ruffled gown with a hat, a sash, and a picket sign, who might just as well have walked off of an old-fashioned Coca-Cola tray. Or maybe the frazzled lady of the house in Disney s Mary Poppins, the British version in the ruffled gown with the sash, rushing out of the house to go marching for Votes for Women! It s so quaint an image, they might as well be picketing for varietal tea sandwiches and better table manners. The battle for suffrage wasn t won by being pretty, or quaint, or convenient. It was, in fact, a battle. It didn t happen overnight or because the men in power benevolently decided that American ideals called for something greater. It happened because many brave women walked a brutal, bloody, and torturous road so that they and we could live out those American ideals of democracy. In 1917, as Woodrow Wilson began his second term, suffragettes demonstrated outside the White House demanding the right to vote. Alice Paul, Lucy Burns and other leaders of the National Woman s Party held round-the-clock vigils, hung Wilson in effigy, and held banners criticizing the hypocrisy of Wilson making the world safe for democracy when there was no true democracy in the United States. Refusing to back down despite calls for the country to focus instead on World War I, the demonstrators began to be arrested for obstructing traffic and thrown in jail. Many protestors endured nightmarishly inhumane conditions at the Occoquan workhouse prison in Virginia or the District of Columbia jail. The protestors were given rancid food full of worms, denied medical care and refused visitors. Blankets were washed once a year. There were open toilets which could only be flushed only from outside the cell at the whim of unsympathetic prison guards. On the Night of Terror on November 15, 1917, under orders from W.H. Whittaker, superintendent of the Occoquan Workhouse, more than forty guards went on a violent rampage, beating 33 women jailed for political protest. The guards beat Lucy Burns, chained her hands to the cell bars above her head and left her there in torture position to hang for the night. Guards threw Dora Lewis into a dark cell, smashed her head against an iron bed and knocked her out cold. Her cellmate Alice Cosu, believing Mrs. Lewis to be dead, suffered a heart attack but was denied medical care. According to affidavits, women were dragged, beaten, choked, slammed, kicked, and tortured, including a 73 year-old woman. One woman was stabbed between the eyes with a broken banner. 6
7 (l-r, Dora Lewis, Lucy Burns, Alice Paul) Many prisoners, including Alice Paul, went on a hunger strike in prison and were force-fed. The hunger strike garnered these brave freedom fighters the moniker Iron-Jawed Angels in the press. Alice Paul was finally so weak from her hunger strike that she was taken by stretcher to the prison hospital. Once there, she was held without the ability to see any visitors or an attorney. Prison officials threatened to transfer her to the prison psychopathic ward and the government s institution for the insane if she did not break the hunger strike. When she refused, they made good on their threat and took her to the prison psych ward and treated her like a mental patient. She could not sleep for more than a few minutes at a time because an electric light was shined on her face once an hour throughout the night. Finally, through the help of a well-known supporter (and lawyer) Dudley Field Malone, she was returned to the jail hospital and released a week later. In May and June 1919, Congress passed the Susan B. Anthony Amendment, but it was still necessary to secure ratification by the legislatures of thirty-six states (three-quarters of the-then forty-eight). Many believed that this would take twenty years or more, but with the leadership of Alice Paul and others, the 36 th state ratified in August In November 1920, American women voted in a presidential election for the first time. It took seventy-two years from the first convention for women s rights at Seneca Falls, New York in 1848 for American women to finally secure this right. Almost the same time has now passed between the passage of the 19 th Amendment and this election. Eighty-eight years later, have we forgotten our grandmothers sacrifices? Maybe we distance ourselves from suffragettes because we don t want to believe our freedom is fragile, or that it doesn t automatically come with your birth certificate. And it s easy to forget; after all, American women are reaching heights never before reached in both parties. But that doesn t mean you can sit back, relax and let someone else pull that lever (or spin that wheel on the E-slate machines). Women voters will decide the outcome of this election, and many critical issues to women are on the line. We have to show up at the polls. We owe it to our foremothers, to the freedom fighters like Alice Paul, Lucy Burns, Dora Lewis, Susan B. Anthony, and many, many more. And we owe it to ourselves, and to our children, to take the time to choose our leaders thoughtfully, because your vote matters. Alice Paul was one of us. After surviving torture in prison and mental institutions, she became a lawyer. She studied law at the Washington College of Law and went on to receive a Master s and Doctorate legal degrees from American University (Washington, D.C.) in 1927 and Could you look her in the eye and give her any excuse for staying home on Election Day? Neither could I. If you aren t registered to vote, time is running out. Don t wait one more day, go to and register. The immeasurable debt that we owe to these Iron-Jawed Angels can only be repaid in one way, over and over again. Vote. Ms. Higginbotham is a partner with Archuleta, Alsaffar & Higginbotham. She is the immediate past president of TCWLA and Chair of the Travis County Women Lawyers Foundation. 7
