    Description
    This course examines the social, political, economic, and cultural history of women in the United States from pre-contact to the present, using a gendered, multi-cultural perspective. It investigates the ways in which women have wielded power while holding little authority. Perceptions about women, and how this knowledge relates to women's actual experiences are explored, specifically looking at the political, social, medical, legal and gendered representations of women's experiences.
