There should be nothing concerning their personal or Christian life that contradicts their testimony, or brings shame upon the name of Christ. Happy Women’s Day Rev. James Abrams, Pastor At some time in life we feel a trembling, fearful longing to do some good thing, something different and helpful to some good cause. It was just such an impulse and urge that led Mrs. Nannie Helen Burroughs to think of what a special day-dedicated to a great causecould do for churchwomen. Women’s Day was proposed by Mrs. Burroughs, the young corresponding secretary of the Women’s Convention, at the meeting of the convention in Memphis, Tennessee, in September 1906. The proposal was that the Fourth Sunday in July be known as National Women’s Day. This day was not thought up as a scheme for raising money, but a Christian school for raising women. To quote for her letter, “A million women working, a million women singing, a million women laboring for the coming of the kingdom in the hearts of all men...would be a power that would move God on his throne to answer, immediately, their petitions. It would mean spiritual dynamite that would blast Satan’s greatest strongholds.” As a result of Mrs. Burroughs’ idea, many women have discovered that given the opportunity to develop, they can be great tools in Christian service. They have learned to speak, present good Christian ideas, depict courage, fidelity and grace, and are more and more becoming great spokeswomen for the Lord. Mrs. Burroughs intended for women to do what the woman did who talked with Jesus at the well. She “went to town” and brought the town out to “see Jesus.” The Women’s Day idea was accepted and continues in full bloom today.

YOUR INTERNET RESOURCE FOR AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORY Nannie Helen Burroughs was born the eldest daughter to John and Jennie Burroughs on May 2, 1883 in Orange, Virginia. Her widowed mother took her to Washington, D.C. at an early age in pursuit of a better education. She studied business and domestic science in high school and graduated with honors in 1896. In 1907 she received an honorary M.A. degree from Eckstein-Norton University in Kentucky. She became an accomplished writer and editor and also served as President of the Women's Auxiliary of the National Baptist Convention. : Miss Burroughs had hoped to teach domestic science, but was denied a teaching position by the Board of Education in the District of Columbia. This denial spurred her to eventually start her own school which "would give all sorts of girls a fair chance." Disappointed, she moved to Philadelphia and became Associate Editor of a Baptist newspaper, The Christian Banner. Later she returned to Washington expecting to get an appointment after having received a high rating on a civil service exam. Again, she experienced disappointment when she was told there were no jobs for a "colored girl." Bruised, but still proud and self-sufficient, she took a job as office building janitor and later became a bookkeeper for a manufacturing company. She then accepted a position in Louisville, Kentucky as a secretary for the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention. In the early 1900's, Miss Burroughs established the Women's Industrial Club which offered shor-term lodging to Black women and taught them basic domestic skills. The organization also provided moderate-cost lunches for downtown office workers. Later, she started to hold classes, for 10 cents a week, for club members majoring in business. Also, during the Depression, Miss Burroughs established and managed a self-help vinture called Cooperative Industrial, Inc. which provided free facilities for a medical clinic, a hairdressing salon and a variety store. In 1907, with the support of the National Baptist Convention, Miss Burroughs began coordination building plans for the National Trade and Professional school for Women and Girls located in Washington, D.C. The school opened its doors in 1909 with her as President. Under the motto, "We specialize in the wholly impossible," Miss Burroughs sought "the highest development of Christian womanhood" through a curriculum designed to emphasize practical and professinal skills. Her students were taught to be self-sufficient wage earners as well as "expert homemakers." She believed it http://www.toptags. com/aama/bio/women/nburroughs. htm 8/7/02 AFRO-AMERICAN ALMANAC - African-American History Resource Page 2 of 2 was her duty to see that an industrial and a classical education be attained simultaneously. A purist who found grammatical errors physically painful, she required courses on a high school and a junior college level that developed language skills. The National Trade and Professional School also maintained a close connection between education and religion. Its creed, stressed by Miss Burroughs, consisted of the "three B's; the Bible, the bath, the Broom, clean life, clean body, clean house." Of particular pride at the National Training School was its Black history program in which every student was required to take a course. Many honors were accorded Miss Burroughs. In 1964, the school she founded was renamed the Nannie Burroughs School. And, in 1975, in recognition of her courage and wisdom in espousing education for Black women against the consensus of society, Mayor Walter E. Washington proclaimed May 10th Nannie Helen Burroughs Day in the District of Columbia. Nanny Helen Burroughs lived a full and accomplished life, dying on May 20, 1961 at the age of eighty-two.

When I was five my widowed mother bought me to Washington, D.C. in pursuit of a better education. At the M Street High School I excelled under the guidance of dedicated teachers like Mary Church Terrell, graduating with honors in 1896. At the time, African American women were basically limited to two employment options: domestic service or teaching. My mother, like the majority of African American women in cities, worked as a domestic servant. The work domestic servants performed maintaining homes was considered unskilled labor; and therefore, paid low wages. As a result, many African American domestic servants and their families lived in poverty in places like Shepherd Alley. I wanted to become a domestic science teacher so that I could offer these women professional training that might help them earn a higher salary and afford better living conditions. Despite my qualifications, I was denied a teaching job because of the color of my skin. The pain of that disappointment inspired me to eventually establish a school that would give all sorts of girls a fair chance. In the meantime, I did find a job in Philadelphia as an assistant editor for a Baptist newspaper. In 1900 I moved to Louisville, Kentucky to work as a secretary for the Foreign Mission Board of the National : Baptist Convention, then the largest organization of African fefetican clergymen. Later that year at the annual meeting of the National Baptist Convention in Richmond, I argued for the right of women to participate equally in the missionary activities of the denomination in a speech entitled, "How the Sisters are Hindered from Helping." As a result of my speech, the Woman's Convention, Auxiliary to the National Baptist Convention was organized. The Woman's Convention primarily worked to raise money for the missions, which provided food, clothing, housing, and educational opportunities for poor people in the United States and around the world. As the Corresponding Secretary and President of the Woman's Convention for over sixty years, I http://www.loc. gov/loc/kidslc/sp-burroughs. html _™ gat Bl | = 8/7/02 Nannie Helen Burroughs - Discovering Hidden Washington (Library of Congress, May 22, ..

After many years of persistent effort, I was able to convince the National Baptist Convention and Woman's Convention to endorse the establishment of my school. For the site, I chose a farm house on six acres of land in the Lincoln Heights section of Washington. On October 19, 1909 I opened the doors of the National Training School for Women and Girls.

There were also classes in grammar, * English literature, Latin, drama, public speaking, music, and physical education. I also required all of my student to take a course in Black history. At the . core of the curriculum was the study of the Bible. : Nannie called her School the School of the "Three “ Bs— the Bible, The Bath, and The Broom." In 1975, Mayor Walter E.

When? And for what purpose? At some time in life we feel a tremblina, fearful longing to do some _good thing; something different and helpful to some good cause. Itwas just such an impulse and urge , that led Mrs. ‘Nannie Burroughs _ to think of what a special day—dedicated to a great cause-—could do for church women. Women’s Day was proposed by Mrs. Burroughs, _ ‘the young corresponding secretary of the Women’s Convention, at _ “the meeting of the convention in Memphis, Tennessee, in September 1906. 7 | The ‘olenaee! was ‘that the Fourth Sunday in July ‘be Known as National Women's Day. This day was not thought up as a scheme for raising money, but a Christian school for raising women. To quote - from her letter, “A million women working, a million women singing, a million women laboring for the coming of the kingdom in the hearts of all men...would be a power that would move God on his throne to . answer, immediately, their petitions. It would mean spiritual dynamite that woud blast Satan’ S greatest strongholds." As a Sa of Mrs. Burroughs’ ‘idea, many women have discovered that given the opportunity to develop, they can be great tools in Christian service.
