Dear Feminists, Susan Koppelman, the literary historian, asks us to help Amy Rebecca Jacobs find someone to join a panel. READ ON>.
Greetings,
We are seeking an additional participant and chair for a panel that
explores contributions to the second wave from outside traditional
networks for the American Historical Association Annual Meeting in
Chicago, January 5-8 2012.
 We would like to explore the extent to which the ideals and goals of second-wave feminism have been advanced through unconventional or disparate avenues, or by those who might have considered themselves outsiders to the mainstream movement (broadly construed). One paper will examine the influence of professional women's career ambitions on the course of the office workers' movement in the 1970s and 1980s. Another paper will examine the development of a feminist consciousness by American military women serving in-country during the Vietnam war.
If you are interested please contact Amy Rebecca Jacobs arjacobs@virginia.edu. Final abstracts must be submitted by February 15th, so if you are interested please contact me no later than February 7th.
Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. Thanks.
Amy Rebecca Jacobs arjacobs@virginia.edu
