Fannie Jackson Coppin (1837-1913)

Fannie Jackson was born a slave in Washington D.C. on October 15, 1837.  She gained her freedom when her aunt was able to purchase her at the age of twelve.  Through her teen years Jackson worked as a servant for the author George Henry Calvert and in 1860 she enrolled at Oberlin College in Ohio.  Oberlin College was the first college in the United States to accepted both black and female students. While attending Oberlin College Jackson enrolled and excelled in the men’s course of studies.  She was elected to the highly respected Young Ladies Literary Society and was the first African American student to be appointed in the College’s preparatory department.  As the Civil War came to an end she established a night school in Oberlin in order to educate freed slaves. Upon her graduation in 1865, Jackson became a high school teacher at the Institute for Colored Youth, (ICY) a high school for African American students in Philadelphia.  Within a year she ...

Definition of Matriach Websters 1910 International Dictionary

Ma'tri-arch'y   (ma'tri'ar'ki),  n.; pl.   A state or stage of social evolution in which deescent is reckoned only in the female line, all children belonging to the mother's clan.  Such a system increases the mother's social and political importance, making her the head of the family and the  guardian of religious rites  and traditions.  Hence, with many writers matriarchy means not only descent reckoned through the female line ( called uterine descent, or cognation ), but also rulership by woman.   Others, however, discriminate the rights and customs characteristic of  uterine descent , as mother-right ( adaptation of G. Mutterrrecht ), from the political or domestic supremacy of woman, known as gynecocracy, or gynocracy, " rulership by women, " or metrocracy, " rulership by mothers ." Matriarchy in the narrow sense (that is, as "mother-right") is found  among many primitive peoples ; whether it ever existed in the broade...

Which Came First Eve, or Adam?

The question of which came first, Eve or Adam, has plagued and tormented the “ Tree of Life ” for longer than I wish to ponder.  It is right in line with the “Chicken or Egg,”  “Black or White” question.  So, which did come first Eve, or Adam?”  I will address this issue in an attempt to put this ridiculously stupid question to rest right here and now forever! People in every ethnic group, despite their age, or gender should know one thing.  In the species called man,  EVERY female arrives on this Earth, from her Creator, with all of her eggs already inside her body .  Therefore, it stands to reason that the proverbial chicken and egg arrived together, at the same time, in one package. Exactly who IS her (AND his) Creator?  Her Creator is the tree from which she grew.  The same tree that breathed air into her for the 9 months she spent engulfed in water.  So, the ridiculous NONSENSE of female Eve coming from male Adam’s rib to b...
