Uppity Women: A Legacy of Liberation (1974) by the Lilith's Rib Collective at Hunter College

From the introduction:

We are a group of women students at Hunter College who are working for the implementation of a Women's Studies Department at Hunter. Given an enrollment that is 73% women and a long background as a women's college, we feel that it is time for us to learn about our HERitage and with this goal in mind we are working both politically and educationally. We have chosen to name ourselves after Lilith. She was first mentioned in Assyrian myths as a wind spirit and later played a major part in early Hebraic lore. She is mentioned in the Alphabet Ben Sira as the first woman, created simultaneously with Adam. Being thus created, Lilith refused to accept Adam's claim of supremacy and left him, after refusing to lie beneath him during intercourse. She went to live by the Red Sea. We have chosen her as a symbolic starting point to our heritage. Our motivation to write this book comes out of our own experiences as women. It is an effort to connect with a rich past that has been denied us. Our purpose is to briefly introduce you to some of these women whose lives have been lost to us and who were the Foremothers of our Woman's Culture. We hope that this will encourage you to rediscover Women's history and to participate in the struggle that lies ahead. In Sisterhood, The Lilith's Rib Collective

Back To School

pull up a chair I have no good memories of school, no sense of nostalgia or even of learning. It was something I had to do period. I was inattentive, fearful & had no memory – I couldn’t memorize dates, equations, spellings – the stuff that got good marks. I tried sports but wasn’t coordinated enough, fast enough or interested in getting trophies. I didn’t excel at anything. I was never a…

Guess who went to WoodHill Mansion/Museum/Estate, had a mental breakdown, and then went to the DC Smithsonian Zoo-

:,D

WoodHill Estate; Drew mostly states.

It’s very beautiful; the inside of the mansion has a lot of French & Russian artifacts, curtesy of the original (now dead) owner being a collector, and the outside is a a wide range of gardens.

Smithsonian Zoo at Washington DC!

Not my first time, so its not like I took too many pictures; Was mostly studying the sea lions + seals, and then a bit of reptiles and fish.

The sea lions are just dogs, you can't change my mind lol.

OK time for more stones.

This six-foot gabbro boulder is incised with a curious figure known these days as the 'Rhynie Man'. It was turned up during ploughing near the village of that name in the 1970s; these days it's on display in the foyer of Woodhill House, the headquarters of Aberdeenshire Council. Literally just at the reception desk, so you can just nip in for a look, no appointments necessary or anything.

He's a bit of a mystery, really. His sharp teeth suggest to me that he's not meant to be a portrait of a local ruler, but it's hard to say what he is meant to represent. The stone doesn't have any symbols on it other than the Man himself, so it's difficult to date with any sort of precision, though the boulder being relatively unworked rather than shaped into a slab points towards it being one of the older ones, maybe 6th or 7th century. He could perhaps be some kind of local god or other hero; it's also been proposed that, if it's a later stone, he could have something to do with St Matthew, but I can't say I quite follow the reasoning behind that.

First full drawing in Cagayan. I wanted to make something big so that I can put this in my room in Woodhill. I'll make more in the future just like this masterpiece of mine.

Levi Scofield House

2438 Mapleside Rd.

Cleveland, OH

In Cleveland, Ohio, Levi Tucker Scofield, the man who designed the 125-foot tall Soldiers and Sailors Monument on Public Square in 1894 to Cleveland's Civil War heroes and built the Scofield Building in 1902 on the southwest corner of Euclid Avenue and East Ninth Street which is being restored, also built a mansion at 2438 Mapleside Road in the city's Buckeye-Woodhill neighborhood. Sitting for the last 117 years, hardly anyone notices it today. And, sadly, it is slowly crumbling into ruins. Scofield was a third-generation Clevelander, born in 1842 on Walnut Street, near today's downtown intersection of East Ninth and Superior Avenue. His grandfather Benjamin, a carpenter, came to Cleveland from the state of New York in 1816, and built some of the early-era buildings in what is now the city's downtown. Levi's father William followed in the family business, likewise becoming a carpenter and also a builder who contributed to the early building up of downtown Cleveland. In the 1850s, William purchased property on the southwest corner of Erie (East Ninth) and Euclid Avenue, and in about 1861 built a boarding house there, which also served as his family's residence. Growing up in such a family, it is not surprising that Levi decided to become an architect.

When the Civil War broke out in 1861, Levi Scofield, just 19 years old, left Cleveland to fight for the North. He joined the 103rd Regiment as a private, but was soon commissioned a second lieutenant. By the War's end, he had risen to the rank of Captain. In 1865, he returned to Cleveland and began his career as an architect. His work covered a wide range of building types. He designed mansions for Euclid Avenue millionaires. He also designed school buildings--including the Central High School building on Wilson Avenue (East 55th Street) in 1877. He was an early architect of penitentiary buildings, creating the plans for the Athens, Ohio Lunatic Asylum (1868)--today, housing the Kennedy Museum of Art at Ohio University, the North Carolina State Penitentiary (1870), and the Ohio State Reformatory at Mansfield (1886). Scofield also designed monuments--not just the famous Soldiers and Sailors Monument on Cleveland Public Square (1894), but also--and perhaps just as important to his national reputation, the 'These Are My Jewels' monument for the State of Ohio that was featured at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. And, of course, he designed office buildings, including the downtown Scofield Building.

In the 1890s, as the Euclid Avenue corridor in downtown Cleveland was transforming into a commercial district, Levi Scofield decided to move from what had been his boyhood neighborhood of Erie (East Ninth) Street and Euclid Avenue, to the "country"--the southeast side of Cleveland, near today's intersection of Quincy Avenue and Woodhill Road. There on a bluff overlooking the Fairmount Reservoir--which was then a picturesque body of water, he purchased six plus acres of land and designed and built a beautiful residence for his family. The three-story, stone-facade Victorian style house with over 6,000 square feet of living space was completed in 1898. Scofield resided there until his death in 1917.

After the death of Levi Scofield, his family remained in the house until 1925, when it was sold to the Cleveland Catholic Diocese. For the next thirty years, the Scofield mansion served as a chapel, a mission headquarters, and as a convent for the Sisters of the Most Holy Trinity. In 1955, the Sisters sold the property, and the mansion became a nursing home--first Mapleside Nursing and then Baldwin Manor, until approximately 1990, when it closed. Since that time, the mansion has been vacant and has experienced neglect and disrepair. Now nearly 120 years old, the Levi Scofield mansion is on the brink of demolition. There has been much talk in recent years about the Opportunity Corridor and what that new roadway might bring to the Buckeye-Woodhill neighborhood on Cleveland's southeast side, where this mansion still stands. Whether the new corridor will be built in time to bring new opportunity to the historic Levi Scofield Mansion, though, is anyone's guess.

Located in in Cleveland’s Woodhill neighborhood, this 1898 home of sculptor and architect Levi T. Scofield sits on a bluff over-looking the city. While this home is both architecturally and historically significant, it is also severely deteriorated having sat vacant for over two decades and was slated for demolition. The City of Cleveland’s Building and Housing Department reached out to Cleveland Restoration Society regarding the property which was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 31, 2019. After evaluating the home, CRS quickly assembled an expert task force of local real estate and development professionals to secure and stabilize the property. To date, CRS has been instrumental in having the property donated to the Cuyahoga County Land Bank, orchestrating the release of liens, and initiating over $200,000 of donated construction services.
