Another fabulous Tyrotarian Tour! Yesterday, Rotarians stepped into the past and discovered stories of amazing women who left their mark on Milwaukee’s history at the Forest Home Cemetery & Arboretum Milwaukee. Thank you again to our tour guide Anita Pietrykowskia for a captivating tour that unveiled the legacies of women whose stories are often untold and overlooked in history in our city.

This Memorial Day, as we remember the brave men and women who gave their lives for our freedom, it’s a poignant time to reflect on the legacies we create and the memories we cherish. It’s a day to honor sacrifice and to think about the impact of legacy—how actions and decisions resonate beyond a lifetime. In remembrance, we can also consider how we manage our own legacies through the choices we make every day. While today is about those who made the ultimate sacrifice, it’s also a reminder for all of us about the importance of planning and ensuring a secure future for our loved ones. It’s a tribute to foresight, responsibility, and the care we take to safeguard what matters most. As you spend today in reflection, consider how you’re shaping your legacy. On this day of remembrance, let’s honor those who have gone before us by living with intention and purpose. #MemorialDay

"I am Preservation" with Ken Lustbader - co-director of the NYC LGBT Historic Sites Project As we celebrate our 50th anniversary we are highlighting a video series called "I am Preservation" to exhibit the widespread love of landmarks throughout the City. Please join in the celebration and send us your video. We will post clips throughout the rest of the year on our many social media platforms. TIPS for making your own "I am Preservation" video. Say your name, and if you like, the neighborhood that you live in. Briefly comment on what you love about New York City landmarks or a specific historic building, place, or structure. And, finish by saying “I am Preservation!” Film in landscape mode (hold smartphone horizontally) If you can’t film yourself, maybe have a friend film you in front of a landmark or your favorite historic building or structure. Be aware of your surroundings (street-level noise, etc.) Check your lighting. If possible, you don’t want to be in an area that is too dark or too bright. Set up your shot (minimize things that might be distracting on screen) We are looking for short clips. Thirty seconds at maximum. Make eye contact, don’t forget to smile. Speak up and enunciate your words. We want viewers to hear you. Send your finished video clips to photos@nylandmarks.org Have fun! #iampreservation #nylandmarks #nylandmarksconservancy

SHARE A STORY of a woman from your family, your community, or from the past who inspired you to think differently! The American story contains infinite stories, some widely known, and many waiting to be uncovered and shared. Women’s experiences and contributions are as vast as the multitudes they contain. When the facts of the past combine with lived experience, history is transformed. The Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum expands the story of America through the often-untold accounts and accomplishments of women—individually and collectively—to better understand our past and inspire our future. Through new stories, we all benefit from a deeper historical understanding of our nation. #WomensHistoryIs a movement that claims the value and importance of every woman’s story. What does women’s history mean to you? Share a story of a woman from your family, your community, or from the past who inspired you to think differently. A story of a woman is a story of America. Women’s history is American history. https://lnkd.in/eWQHw2bE

Honoring women, this day and every day, as the givers of life ... "The ethical code of my own Anishinabeg community of the White Earth Reservation in northern Minnesota keeps communities and individuals in line with natural law. 'Minobimaatisiiwin' - it means both the 'good life' and 'continuous rebirth' - is central to our value system. In minobimaatisiiwin, we honor one another, we honor #women as the givers of lives, we honor our Chi-Anishinabeg, our old people and ancestors who hold the knowledge. We honor our children as the continuity from generations, and we honor ourselves as a part of creation. Implicit in minobimaatisiiwin is a continuous habitation of place, an intimate understanding of the relationship between humans and the ecosystem and of the need to maintain this balance. "Such value systems have made it possible for many indigenous peoples to maintain economic, political, religious, and other institutions for generations in a way that would now be termed sustainable. Overall, land-based traditional societies value fertility, birth, and rebirth as the centerpiece of their cultural practices, with obvious implications for agricultural, harvesting, and religious institutions. Inherent and instinctual in that is the understanding that women manifest those qualities and events in physical form. Thus, most indigenous cultures view women with reverence. And women, in turn, exercise influence and authority in their #communities." More here - https://lnkd.in/ejRMRxUH And here - https://lnkd.in/e7wXz_Am
