    Ep 2: Dorothea Dix, Humanitarian

    The Women’s Work team install an errant filter found in the box of the Tesseractitron CR-app and connect to coordinates for speaking with Pre and Post Civil War Humanitarian, Dorothea Lynde Dix, apparently at her hospital residence in Trenton, New Jersey. Although it seems a rocky start, Miss Dix begins to open up to host, Leslie Gray, and chronicles in detail her work in bringing attention and funding to state asylums for the mentally ill during a time when those with psychological disturbances were treated as criminals.  She discusses her work coordinating female nurses during the Civil War and her less than triumphant return to asylum advocacy after conflict in “The Rebellion” finishes.

    Ep 1: Mary Walton, Inventor

    The Women’s Work team inaugurate their donation from the local research facility of a Tesseractitron Chrono-Reduction Apparatus to conduct an interview with the 19th Century environmental inventor, Mary Elizabeth Walton.   After some initial jitter, the cross-century connection, via Zoom, succeeds and Mary Walton highlights her smoke reducing device, her noise dampening invention for the Elevated Railway, and lays down some advice about her experiences trying to work as a woman in a man’s world.
