WST 150 X (WI, IS) Radical Women and the Struggle for Social and Economic Justice in the US
“Well-behaved women seldom make history,” so the saying goes. This course will use the lens of biography + social movement studies to construct portraits of women who refused to behave well and explore how these women-led, challenged, and otherwise influenced movements for social and economic justice in various eras, up to, and including, the present.
Cross-listed with RHET 189A and LABR 155A.
