"Complaining without posing a solution is called whining." (Teddy Roosevelt) A wise man once faced a group of people who were complaining about the same issues over and over again. One day, instead of listening to the complaints, he told them a joke, and everyone cracked up laughing. Then, the man repeated the joke. A few people laughed and some others smiled. He then told it a third time and most of the people just politely smiled. Finally, the man repeated the joke a fourth time–but no one reacted, other than to glare at the man as they shook their heads. The man smiled and said, “You won’t laugh at the same joke more than once. So, what are you getting from continuing to complain about the same problem over and over again?” You see, some of us just like to complain but not do anything about a problem. Today, we have a choice. We can be part of the problem or part of the solution. We’re not going to get anywhere if we keep complaining about the same problem but do nothing to fix it. We don’t need to waste our time complaining. Instead, we must take action to make a change. Today we can be the change we want to see in the world.

The Old Lion: A Novel of Theodore Roosevelt by Jeff Shaara #ARC #BookReview #StMartinsPress #NetGalley
I know a lot about #TheodoreRoosevelt so I was curious about an upcoming #HistoricalFiction book, #TheOldLion by #JeffShaara. How much was right and how much was exaggerated? You'd be surprised. #NetGalley #ARC #BookReview #TeddyRoosevelt #USPresident
In one of his most accomplished, compelling novels yet, acclaimed New York Times bestseller Jeff Shaara accomplishes what only the finest historical fiction can do – he brings to life one of the most consequential figures in U.S. history – Theodore Roosevelt – peeling back the many-layered history of the man, and the country he personified.

Happy #WomensHistoryMonth!
Perkins with David Dubinsky in 1944, and Eleanor Roosevelt in 1961.
Happy March! To kick off #WomensHistoryMonth, our first #LaborOrganizerSpotlight of the month is Frances Perkins.
An avid women's rights activist from the start, when she encountered the tragedy at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, she immediately sought reform and action to prevent similar workplace horrors. Recommended by Theodore Roosevelt, she was appointed executive of the Committee on Safety which was crucial in the creation of the New York State Factory Investigating Commission, which was in charge of ensuring factories were up to code.
Years later, in 1929, then NY Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed her Industrial Commissioner of the State of New York. From there, she persistently encouraged him to take action following the stock market crash, and he appointed her in charge of a committee on employment. Upon FDR's election, he further admired her tenacity and accomplishment and appointed her the first female Secretary of State, thus the first female on a President's Cabinet. Her responsibilities included dealing with the issues of the Great Depression, most notably unemployment. Her support and efforts towards the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) helped make it one of the greatest successes of the New Deal, but her most significant contribution was the Social Security Program. Serving as chair on the Committee on Economic Security, which created the Social Security Program, the Social Security Act was signed into law in 1935. Additionally, her efforts and ambitions were reflected in the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1935, which established a federal minimum wage and prohibited child labor. (Source: fdrlibrary.org)
Did you know she was a Cornell University #ILRSchool visiting lecturer from 1957 to 1965? And, the Kheel Center has an extensive collection on the labor movement while Perkins was on FDR's Cabinet: photographs, correspondence, interviews, memorabilia and lectures! See Coll. 5017 and /3047 AV.

PRESIDENT TEDDY ROOSEVELT ON PATRIOTISM
By Miriam Kleiman, Program Director for Public Affairs.
Numerous patriotic quotes are circulating on social media in the aftermath of the horrific attack on the US Capitol. Following the sage wisdom of my brilliant and inspiring AP US History teacher Terry Pollack, I sought primary sources to verify and provide context to these statements attributed to Teddy Roosevelt.
Teddy Roosevelt quote 1:
“Patriotism means to stand with the country. It does not mean to stand with the President.”
Source: President Teddy Roosevelt, Lincoln and Free Speech, Metropolitan Magazine, May 1918 (v.47 no.6), From the HathiTrust Digital Library, essay here.
Teddy Roosevelt quote 2:
To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.
Source: Sedition, a Free Press, and Personal Rule, editorial by Teddy Roosevelt, Kansas City Star, 5/7/1918. Online here.
Our nation’s history is one of protest, fighting for rights, and continually striving to form a “more perfect union.” Two of our current exhibits, Records of Rights, and Rightfully Hers: American Women and the Vote, highlight records documenting historic struggles. However, such challenges to and questioning of the government, especially of the President, are often seen as unpatriotic or even treasonous. As the highlighted quotes above show, Teddy Roosevelt responded strongly to such accusations.
Teddy Roosevelt stated that far from being unpatriotic, it is one’s patriotic duty to oppose a president whose policies put Americans in harm’s way. At the time, the US was both embroiled in World War I and dealing with a pandemic. Teddy Roosevelt adamantly supported the war, and even wanted to serve despite his age and failing health, but criticized President Woodrow Wilson for not playing a bigger role on the European war front. Wilson responded by trying to quash all criticism through Sedition Act of 1918 that criminalized any “disloyal, profane, scurrilous, or abusive language” about the U.S. government or military.

While the records above from President Teddy Roosevelt are not from the National Archives, we do hold records of government efforts to foster “patriotic spirit” including the original Declaration of Independence. and thousands of military recruitment posters, some more effective than others, including this one:
“Like mighty Niagara’s torrents is the strong surge of our patriotism.”
WWII poster, Office for Emergency Management. Office of War Information. NARA ID 515739.
