We will examine the commonalities of women's experiences and explore the impacts of race, law, ethnicity, class, and region on women's lives. This course also explores how women both fostered and were affected by social, political, economic, legal and cultural transformations in the United States. The impact of the U.S. and California Constitutions on women's life experiences and the activities of federal, state, and local governments will also be assessed.
