Our class will examine the many ways that women, including women of color, LGBTQ+ women, and women from many backgrounds have made a mark on the U.S. Because we'll be learning in London, we'll also spend some time comparing women's situation and accomplishments in the U.S. to women's experiences in the U.K.
