Clementina Rind’s Revolutionary Press: Primary Sources to Teach During Women’s History Month
Tuesday, February 11 at 7 pm
During the American Revolution, most women stayed at home, right? Although women typically worked at home, during the American Revolution, women played vital roles in the fight for independence including running printing businesses. When her husband died in 1773, Clementina Rind took over her husband’s printing press and fought to keep the public printing contract her husband had earned. Learn more about Rind’s story and examine a range of primary sources that can help students better understand women’s revolutionary roles in the 1770s.
Participants will receive a certificate for 1.5 professional development hours for attending this session.
