This half-option module surveys the history of women, gender, and sexuality in America from the colonial period to the modern era. The module moves chronologically through the centuries, focusing on select themes and issues important to understanding the changing nature of womanhood, gender, and sexuality over time. With specific attention to the intersecting analytical categories of gender, race, class, and sexuality, we will spend time analysing women’s political, economic, and social role in a developing nation.
