Subject: UNTAMED: Women and the Law Symposium - Call for Papers

Dear Sam, Henry and Rachel Ann,

I am writing to you from Jamestown Settlement, a living-history museum in Williamsburg, Virginia with a request to share the attached call for papers with faculty and students at your university.

Some background:
2019 marks the 400th anniversary of the Virginia Company of London recruiting English women to make good wives for settlers in Virginia.  Jamestown Settlement’s “TENACITY: Women in Jamestown and Early Virginia,” is a story-driven special exhibition using artifacts, images and primary sources – some on display in America for the first time – to examine the struggles and contributions of the English, Powhatan and African women whose experiences helped shape our nation. From women’s roles to women’s rights, the exhibition connects issues of the 17th century and their relevance today.

Jamestown Settlement is planning “UNTAMED: Women and the Law,” a symposium to be held September 13-14, 2019 at Jamestown Settlement.  The symposium will examine the history of women in America, from pre-colonial times to today, through the lens of the law.

Proposals for “Untamed: Women and the Law” should explore a topic related to the women’s legal status or legal issues in America. Topics might include the evolution of laws governing women and marriage, family, education, work, healthcare, civil rights, politics and the intersection of gender with identity categories of race, class, sexuality, age and ability.

Attached is a flyer with information about submitting proposals to  [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>  with the subject line "UNTAMED" by May 13, 2019.
