Anna J. Cooper - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anna J. Cooper "Anna Julia Cooper was born of Raleigh, North Carolina in 1858 to Hannah Stanley Haywood, an enslaved woman in the home of prominent Wake County landowner George Washington Haywood. Haywood is widely believed by historians to be the biological father of Stanley's seven daughters. Cooper had two older brothers named Andrew J. Haywood and Rufus Haywood. In 1868 when she was around nine years old, Cooper received an award to attend school at th e newly opened Saint Augustine's Normal School and Collegiate Institute, founded by the local Episcopal Diocese for the purpose of training teachers to educate former slaves and their families. During her fourteen years at St. Augustine's, she distinguished herself as a bright and ambitious student, who showed equal dexterity with both liberal arts and analytical disciplines like math and science. During this period, St. Augustine's pedagogical emphasis was on training young men for the ministry, and preparing ambitious men for additional training at four-year universities. The school had a special track reserved for women dubbed the 'Ladies' Course', and the administration actively discouraged women from pursuing higher-level courses. Cooper fought for her right to take courses, such as Greek, which were reserved for men, by demonstrating her scholastic ability. Cooper also worked as a pupil-teacher, which allowed her to pay for her educational expenses. After completing her studies, she remained at the institution as an instructor."

States ignored warnings on unemployment insurance - Yahoo! News

News: "States ignored warnings on unemployment insurance WASHINGTON – State officials had plenty of warning. Over the past three decades, two national commissions and a series of government audits sounded alarms about the dwindling amount of money states were setting aside to pay unemployment insurance to laid-off workers. 'Trust Fund Reserves Inadequate,' federal auditors said in a 1988 report. It's clear now the warnings were pretty much ignored. Instead, states kept whittling away at the trust funds, mostly by cutting unemployment insurance taxes at the behest of the business community. The low balances hastened insolvency when the recession hit, leading about 30 states to borrow $41.5 billion from the federal government to pay unemployment benefits to their growing population of jobless. The ramifications will be felt for years."
