"Women are the equals of men before the law, and are equal in all their rights."
#OnThisDay, 10 May 1872, Victoria Woodhull was nominated to run for US president by the Equal Rights Party. Her nomination was ratified on June 6, 1872, making her the first woman candidate.
Woodhall had co-founded, with her sister, both a Wall Street brokerage and a newspaper. She was also an anti-abortionist and eugenics supporter.
Would/could the "inalienable rights" of IHR exist without the intellectual precursor of the "divine right" of kings?
That is to say, did the latter provide a necessary model (or negative model) for the former? And if so, is that why divinity/god-given is still foundational to so much rights discourse?
Also, is there a model for IHR that's not based on a divine creator? eg One based on a Buddhist or other non-theistic cosmology?

I've written a little post about the National Library of Australia's collection of archived websites in Pandora and the new #GLAMWorkbench section that helps you to work with the data.
Want to find websites from Australian elections back to 1996? Just go to Pandora. Want all the urls in a spreadsheet? Just run my new notebook.
In my course The History of History, the students do research on the Pulitzers in History and Biography. One consistent result is an increase of books on Black history, while the authors' ethnicity remains the same.
The winner and the runners up of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for History are about Black history. All three authors are White. The Pulitzer for Biography shared between two books on Black history. One author is White, one Asian-American.
