Women and the American Revolution

Acclaimed historians Mary Beth Norton, the Mary Donlon Alger Professor Emerita of American History at Cornell University, and Rosemarie Zagarri, distinguished university professor of history at George Mason University, will examine how women influenced the political, social, and intellectual currents of the American Revolution. The conversation will explore how women’s experiences and contributions deepen and expand our understanding of America’s founding. Julie Silverbrook, vice president of civic education at the National Constitution Center, moderates.
