Recording Women In Power

DO women who run countries have to be domineering and spiteful? How do mothering skills enter the formula for women in leadership roles? What if women ruled the world?

In documentaries on “mothers in charge of countries,” Mary Scott of Port Jefferson is starting to examine such questions. The first film, “Chief Wilma Mankiller,” a pilot for the series, is a 28-minute examination of the first elected female chief of the Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma. It was filmed in and around Stilwell, Okla., in “four amazing days in 1990,” Mrs. Scott recalled.

“We were treated kindly and respectfully as ‘you folks from New York,’ and we learned a lot about Oklahoma time,” she added. “They tell you yes when it comes to time, but never say when.”

More important, Mrs. Scott said, she and her crew found in the 46-year-old Chief Mankiller a more amazing story than they had envisioned. As the story unfolded, “shooting on the fly,” they learned that Chief Mankiller had survived an automobile accident and a kidney transplant. Despite the crises she maintained high visibility. Symbol of Tribal Fire

The film includes interviews with the medicine man, historian, family members, neighbors and political colleagues. It opens and closes with the symbol of a tribal fire. Vaguely haunting new-age piano music by Jim Ahrend of Long Island sets a subtle spiritual tone, while images of Indian etchings and sculptures fade into the full face of Chief Mankiller.

“Originally,” Mrs. Scott said, “we thought we could tell the story of how she unpretentiously makes a practical success of liberal theories entirely through those interviews. But, we found a narrator had to be added for needed biographical information.”

The medicine man points out Chief Mankiller’s balance between man and nature and the spiritual view of life. In a dream about her as a young girl, he said, he saw her as a tribal leader. “She has mastered the traditional skills of our people,” he says.

Throughout Cherokee history a matriarchal society with a women’s council held a powerful position, but Chief Mankiller is the first woman of 21 chiefs to be democratically elected. Fourteen northeastern Oklahoma counties, a region the size of Kuwait, make up the Cherokee Nation. Chief Mankiller, a liberal Democrat, leads the largest Cherokee tribe in rural Oklahoma, with 113,000 members and which runs its government, educational, medical and judicial systems. She is responsible for the first “self-government project,” which balances Cherokee culture with the modern world. “I would like most to be remembered as someone who helped our people enter the 21st century on our own terms,” said Chief Mankiller.

Chief Mankiller, whose name is fairly common in the tribe, was one of 10 siblings raised in poverty in eastern Oklahoma and in a poor Indian area of San Francisco. Like other women with power, Chief Mankiller shares a strong will and points to her father as influential. His community work and interest in political issues motivated her, she said.

“The story of Wilma Mankiller, who grew up poor in rural Oklahoma, gives us hope that any young girl who works hard and believes she can, may grow up to be a leader,” Mrs. Scott said. “It also helps dispel negative cultural stereotypes.”

THE 1992 Campagian Woman in the News

Last Thanksgiving Porter Hardy Jr., a retired Congressman from Portsmouth, Va., bluntly told his daughter, Lynn H. Yeakel: “This ain’t no time to be in Washington.”

But Ms. Yeakel, a 50-year-old fund-raiser for women’s charities, also listened to other advisers. Like her, they were outraged by the Senate Judiciary Committee’s hearings on Judge Clarence Thomas’s nomination for the Supreme Court, and they were also confident that it was the right year to shake up that most exclusive of men’s clubs, the United States Senate.

“If it hadn’t been for those hearings,” Ms. Yeakel (pronounced YAY-kul) said in an interview Monday, “it never would have occurred to me to run against Arlen Specter. He’s a frightening adversary.”

On Feb. 6 she began campaigning in the Democratic primary contest for a chance to challenge Mr. Specter, the state’s two-term Republican Senator. Her candidacy was summed up in newspaper headlines like one in The Philadelphia Inquirer on March 13: “Unknown, Inexperienced — and Sure She Can Win.”

Political analysts say Ms. Yeakel ran a flawless campaign, quickly establishing herself with a television advertisement that seemed to capture the mood of voter disgust with Washington. The commercial uses a segment of the televised hearings in which Mr. Specter, a former Philadelphia district attorney, questions Prof. Anita F. Hill of the University of Oklahoma about her sexual-harassment accusations against Judge Thomas. Ms. Yeakel then appears on screen and asks, “Did this make you as angry as it made me?”

Today, many voters apparently said yes, it did.

Ms. Yeakel says those hearings were a landmark in advancing the political candidacies of women, and she said it most forcefully in a recent interview on WHYY-FM public radio in Philadelphia.

“I believe that the backlash from those hearings is somewhat stronger than anyone has documented yet,” she said, “and that in history we’re going to see the Hill-Thomas hearings as being the turning point for American women in terms of really stepping forward, taking political power, using the vote, using our money to elect the candidates who represent our values and stand for our rights.”

But Ms. Yeakel, who is trying to avoid being cast as a single-issue candidate, emphasizes that women’s issues are everybody’s issues. “I am running as a champion of women’s issues, which are issues that are central in this society and include child care, pay equity, housing, education, jobs and the economy,” she said Monday.

Lynn Hardy Yeakel was born July 9, 1941, in Portsmouth to Lynn Moore, a school teacher from Tennessee, and Porter Hardy Jr. Her younger brother, Porter Hardy 3d, died in a car accident in 1986.

Although she waited 50 years to run for public office, she has a personal knowledge of politics and Washington. She was 5 years old when her father began serving his first of 11 terms in the House, and she went to school in Alexandria, Va., with some of Dwight D. Eisenhower’s grandchildren.

Her father once took her to hear Harry S. Truman’s State of the Union Message. She also remembers meeting Queen Elizabeth at a British Embassy party, dancing with President John F. Kennedy at the White House and having Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson pick up a pack of cigarettes that she had dropped at that party.

Thoughts on an execution

Peggy Broxterman’s son was killed in the blast. She will travel to Terre Haute next week. Broxterman, aged 70, is one of 10 relatives and survivors chosen by lottery to attend McVeigh’s execution in person. She strongly supports the death penalty.

“I embraced the opportunity to witness it, because I felt really honoured. I am going for my son. I am very much in favour of it. I always felt the punishment should fit the crime. It will be closing the door on McVeigh, closing down McVeigh absolutely. He’ll just be a scumbag that’s been erased from the face of the earth.

“McVeigh would like to be a martyr, but the militia groups in the US have denounced him. There’s not one of them that supports him. He killed Americans, and you don’t kill your American friends - we are all family out there.

“I’m getting used to the loss now. You do what you have to do. I’ve learned to control it. There’s no such thing as closure. You close on a house. Not on a death.”
