191520763Zarephath New Jersey: The Pentecostal Union 1915. First Edition First Printing. Very Good/No Dust Jacket. <br /> <br /> A radical 1915 manifesto on religious vegetarianism by the first female Bishop in the U.S.-the controversial founder of the Pillar of Fire sect. Published at the church's Zarephath headquarters this treatise argues that 'physical purity' is a divine requirement showcasing the early ethical frameworks of a leader who would later become a notorious apologist for the Ku Klux Klan.<br /> <br /> KEY FEATURES <br /> Visuals: Illustrated with full-page drawings and 10 pages of advertisements featuring photographs of the Pillar of Fire training sites and church publications. <br /> Binding: Original maroon cloth with stamped silver gilt titles. <br /> Content: A foundational text of the Pillar of Fire Church outlining an ethical and spiritual framework for a meat-free lifestyle. <br /> Historical Context: While advocating for women's equality and health reform White remains one of the most controversial figures in American religion due to her later vocal support of the Ku Klux Klan. <br /> Imprint: The Pentecostal Union later Pillar of Fire Zarephath NJ. <br /> Specs: 7.5 inches tall / 213 10 pages.<br /> <br /> CONDITION: Very Good -- Bindings are tight and square. Text is clean with light even age-toning. Minimal shelf handling wear. Previous owner's name stamp on the front paste-down. Silver stamping remains relatively bright against the maroon cloth. <p data-path-to-node="5">HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -- Alma Bridwell White was a pioneer of the "Holiness Movement" and remains the first woman consecrated as a bishop in the United States. Her leadership of the Pillar of Fire Church in Zarephath New Jersey represented a radical departure from mainstream Methodism focusing on rigorous lifestyle restrictions including the vegetarianism detailed in this 1915 work.</p> <br /> <p data-path-to-node="6">White's legacy is deeply polarized. While 'Why I Do Not Eat Meat' showcases her progressive views on animal ethics and women's health it was written just years before she became a leading religious apologist for the Ku Klux Klan. This work is a vital artifact for the study of early 20th-century "fringe" religious movements and the often-contradictory intersection of social reform vegetarianism/feminism and nativist ideologies in American history.</p> <br /> <p data-path-to-node="7">SUBJECTS: Alma White Pillar of Fire Church Vegetarianism Animal Ethics Women in Religion New Jersey History Holiness Movement Religious Extremism Religious History Health & Wellness Social Reform.</p> The Pentecostal Union unknown

19438330Washington D.C.: National Woman's Party 1943. Very good. 14†x 4¼â€; 11†x 4¼â€. Handbills. Very good: a bit of light creasing and corner wear; faint scuff to one top edge.<br /> <br /> This is a set of two handbills written by a noted feminist and leader in the fight for women's rights Alma Lutz.<br /> <br /> Alma Lutz was born in 1890 and graduated from Vassar College in 1912. She was a writer and editor for the National Woman's Party NWP from the 1920s to the 1940s and was for many years a member of the party's national council. Lutz published numerous books and articles on women's rights and women's history not limited to Created Equal: A Biography of Elizabeth Cady Stanton published in 1940 Susan B. Anthony: Rebel Crusader Humanitarian 1959 and Crusade for Freedom: Women of the Anti-Slavery Movement 1968. She was part of historian Mary Beard's circle of women activists and scholars and served on the advisory board of the Schlesinger Library. Lutz died in 1973.<br /> <br /> The text on these handbills originated in a column entitled “A Feminist Thinks It Over By Alma Lutz†printed in Equal Rights the official magazine of the NWP. Founded in 1923 the publication was directed towards women but also strove to educate men about the benefits of women's suffrage and women's rights. NWP an outgrowth of the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage was formed in 1913 by Alice Paul and Lucy Burns. The group is best known for its efforts in writing revising publicizing and advocating for the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment; they fought for this bill for decades including a pivotal rewrite in 1943 and it was finally passed in 1972.<br /> <br /> One of the present editorials urged “Women Your Country Needs You!†It noted that women held “fewer public offices in the United States than in countries which we regard as far less progressive†likely due to having been taught “for so many generations that government is man's sphere and subconsciously this fallacy still controls their thinking.†Lutz pled that the nation needed its women “not only to keep up morale not only to bind up its wounds†but also to “share in government.†The other handbill bemoaned “The Blindness Of The Exceptional Womanâ€: “Why is it that women are still afraid of the words freedom and equality when applied to them Why are they still so eager to hide from the term equal rights Why do they think that other freedoms and other rights are more important than their own†While Lutz may not have had the answers she did argue that the ongoing struggle for “an amendment to the Constitution guaranteeing to women justice and equal rights with men under our laws†was as “noble a goal†as the Declaration of Independence.<br /> <br /> Rare handbills showcasing the work of an important feminist writer and leader. Not located in OCLC nor in the finding aids for any collections of Lutz' papers. [National Woman's Party] unknown
