HI 309 - Women’s History, Part II: The “Other” Ex

Institution:

Hilbert College

Subject:

Description:

This course looks at American Women’s history from the perspectives of race, ethnicity and class. While the initial work done by historians in women’s history defined and analyzed the gender expectations of women from the dominant white middle-class, more recent scholarship measures those expectations of gender against the experiences of women from disadvantaged populations. From the first encounters with Natives, through the enslavement of Africans, and the marginalization of Southern and Eastern European and Asians, to the lingering impact of stereotyping throughout the 20th century, this course examines the particular experience of women from each of these non-dominant cultures.
