Thanks Carlos Munoz @BostonGlobe for this terrific piece on my project to find women who built houses in Newport, RI.

Thanks very much to @alzambone of @hist_think for a terrific conversation about #Fallingwater and #FrankLloydWright. There's even a bit of #ThomasJefferson in there for the @UVA crowd.

1/My interview with @CatherineZipf about her book, Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water: America Architecture During the Depression Era. Frank Lloyd Wright was a polarizing figure and many books have been written about his life and work.-

@RIFoodWars Love your exhibit. Are you available to give a talk on the topic?

[Catherine Zipf @CatherineZipf]

@mcmansionhell The new one replaced the old—another story—and we wish to dub it Mustache McMansion. May we have your endorsement?

[Catherine Zipf @CatherineZipf]

Sigh. Ok, the documentary is fine, but that's all it is.
There is nothing here that reframes the place of women in architecture nor is there anything that suggests ways of making change.
That said, I did appreciate getting to know three women architects better.

Watching @ArchDaily's Documentary "Women in Architecture" and wishing it were less sexist. 7 minutes in and we're talking about balancing career and motherhood. Any documentary on any male architect would not do this.

Lol, well I love the end: "Women will save the world!" You bet we will!

Reading the names off the Timeline of Enslavement in Bristol. Incredibly moving and humbling. Thanks BW Art Night @lindenplace @WomanProjectHQ

@SatEvePost @WomanProjectHQ @lindenplace Reading the names off the timeline was a very powerful experience. Thanks @WomanProjectHQ for your incredible interpretation.

[Catherine Zipf @CatherineZipf]

@SatEvePost Tonight, Bristol Warren Art Night is dedicating an entire night to art and performance on the history of Bristol. The BH&PS's Timeline of Enslavement in Bristol is up and ready to go! Check out the impressive roster of events:

Local to #RhodeIsland? Check out @markrcourtney's work at the @rogersfreelib! (I am a ridiculously proud spouse, but surely you can see why! 💜💜💜)

@mariokhart A book on exactly this (maybe someone can buy it for OP): https://t.co/rY8Zvkhq5K

@SatEvePost @lindenplace (Leaving now to lead free community conversation on slavery in Bristol.)

[Catherine Zipf @CatherineZipf]

@SatEvePost Indeed, but Bristol is doing more than this article gives us credit. The Timeline of Enslavement in Bristol is on display at the Bristol H&P Society (half a block from the parade route), in our library and will be up for Thursday’s Fred Doug reading at @lindenplace.

[Catherine Zipf @CatherineZipf]

@AmericanStudier @megankatenelson @SatEvePost Nice post! Did you catch the Timeline of Enslavement in Bristol? It’s on the Bristol H&P Society building (behind the Remembrance Garden) and at the library. It will also be up at Linden Place on Thursday for the Fred Doug reading. In short, we’re doing more than you think.
