Dow’s “Know More in ’74” inclusion and diversity campaign at NCA 2021

The 2021 National Communication Association Conference was held in November in Seattle and members of the Chemical Rhetoric Group were there and busy. Dr. Megan Cullinan did a wonderful job presenting an analysis our group has been working on with artifacts we garnered from the Science History Institute’s Othmer Library of Chemical History Archives.

Here, Megan is quoting directly from the Dow campaign, noting that women and people of color were described therein as “seedlings in the corporate forest.”
