Women’s Lives in Revolutionary America: A Teaching Exploration with Historian Karin Wulf

ABOUT THIS EVENT

Join the Museum as it welcomes author and historian Dr. Karin Wulf to discuss the lives of everyday women in Revolutionary America. In particular, she’ll explore the ways in which 18th-century women’s stories may deviate from our common perceptions of them as wives and mothers in practice or “in training.” Bring your questions, and leave with new stories and ideas for incorporating the diversity and complexity of women’s lives into your classroom. This program is presented in conjunction with the new in-museum and online virtual exhibit, When Women Lost the Vote: A Revolutionary Story, 1776-1807.
