In 1939, when she was barred for performing at the Daughters of the American Revolution’s Constitution Hall, Anderson performed on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in front of 75,000 people instead. (Swipe ➡️ to see her view as she performed.) Marian Anderson also shaped history with her music. She performed in benefit concerts for causes she cared about, including the Civil Rights movement. In 1963, she returned to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to perform the national anthem at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. (Keep swiping to see a program from the march.) Marian Anderson’s barrier-breaking career, and her commitment to Civil Rights causes, are examples of ways that American women created change beyond the ballot. Tomorrow (Tuesday May 21) we’ll welcome scholars and history makers like Dolores Huerta and Naomi Wadler to the museum to talk to students about what we can learn today from women’s activism in the past.
