Hillary Rodham Clinton: Stand-Up Comedy (1992)
Hillary Rodham Clinton: Stand-Up Comedy (1992)
During her postgraduate study, Rodham served as staff attorney for Edelman's newly founded Children's Defense Fund in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and as a consultant to the Carnegie Council on Children. In 1974 she was a member of the impeachment inquiry staff in Washington, D.C., advising the House Committee on the Judiciary during the Watergate scandal. Under the guidance of Chief Counsel John Doar and senior member Bernard Nussbaum, Rodham helped research procedures of impeachment and the historical grounds and standards for impeachment. The committee's work culminated in the resignation of President Richard Nixon in August 1974. By then, Rodham was viewed as someone with a bright political future; Democratic political organizer and consultant Betsey Wright had moved from Texas to Washington the previous year to help guide her career;[53] Wright thought Rodham had the potential to become a future senator or president.[54] Meanwhile, Clinton had repeatedly asked her to marry him, and she continued to demur.[55] However, after failing the District of Columbia bar exam[56] and passing the Arkansas exam, Rodham came to a key decision. As she later wrote, I chose to follow my heart instead of my head.[57] She thus followed Bill Clinton to Arkansas, rather than staying in Washington where career prospects were brighter. He was then teaching law and running for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in his home state. In August 1974, Rodham moved to Fayetteville, Arkansas, and became one of only two female faculty members in the School of Law at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.[58][59] She gave classes in criminal law, where she was considered a rigorous teacher and tough grader, and was the first director of the school's legal aid clinic.[60] She still harbored doubts about marriage, concerned that her separate identity would be lost and that her accomplishments would be viewed in the light of someone else's.[61] Hillary Rodham and Bill Clinton bought a house in Fayetteville in the summer of 1975, and Hillary finally agreed to marry.[63] Their wedding took place on October 11, 1975, in a Methodist ceremony in their living room.[64] She announced she was keeping the name Hillary Rodham,[64] to keep their professional lives separate and avoid apparent conflicts of interest and because it showed that I was still me,[65] although her decision upset their mothers.[66] Bill Clinton had lost the congressional race in 1974, but in November 1976 was elected Arkansas Attorney General, and so the couple moved to the state capital of Little Rock.[67] There, in February 1977, Rodham joined the venerable Rose Law Firm, a bastion of Arkansan political and economic influence.[68] She specialized in patent infringement and intellectual property law[33] while also working pro bono in child advocacy;[69] she rarely performed litigation work in court.[70] Rodham maintained her interest in children's law and family policy, publishing the scholarly articles Children's Policies: Abandonment and Neglect in 1977[71] and Children's Rights: A Legal Perspective in 1979.[72] The latter continued her argument that children's legal competence depended upon their age and other circumstances and that in serious medical rights cases, judicial intervention was sometimes warranted.[48] An American Bar Association chair later said, Her articles were important, not because they were radically new but because they helped formulate something that had been inchoate.[48] Historian Garry Wills would later describe her as one of the more important scholar-activists of the last two decades,[73] while conservatives said her theories would usurp traditional parental authority,[74] allow children to file frivolous lawsuits against their parents,[48] and argued that her work was legal crit theory run amok.- published: 24 Jun 2014

Webinar: Building Cross Class Alliances for a New Economy, Betsy Leondar Wright 10-17-13
Too often there's a lack of collaboration between the anti-poverty activists aiming to lift the floor and the environmental activists trying to build a sustainable economy. When we understand that a transformative movement must be a cross-class and multiracial movement, we're motivated to learn the skills needed to collaborate with people from very different classes than ourselves. In this webinar, Program Director of Class Action (www.classism.org), Betsy Leondar-Wright, author of "Class Matters: Cross-class Alliance Building for Middle-Class Activists," will share stories, insights and tips for reaching across the class divide to promote social justice. www.neweconomy.net www.neweconomyweek.org www.classism.org- published: 24 Oct 2013

Betsy Leondar-Wright is the program director at the Boston-based group Class Action. She has written "Missing Class: Strengthening Social Movement Groups by Seeing Class Cultures." Her new book is called Missing Class: Strengthening Social Movement Groups by Seeing Class Cultures. In an extensive and academically rigorous study spanning years, Leondar-Wright attended dozens of political group meetings, recorded them, interviewed hundreds of attendees in order to determine their class backgrounds, and then reviewed the recordings to see if patterns emerged. Her findings on the extent to which people's behavior depended on class were surprising. Uprising host Sonali Kolhatkar spoke with Leondar-Wright about the book recently- published: 03 Jun 2014

Betsy Leonard Wright 2014 Lecture
Why have we seen so few cross-class movements in the United States? One reason: we overlook class cultures. Most progressive groups face the same troubles, such as low turnout and internal conflicts. Betsy Leondar-Wright offers a lively, multimedia talk that gives both a big-picture view of the sorry state of class awareness on the left and a prescription for building a cross-class, multiracial movement.- published: 06 Jun 2014
