Select two to four specific historical artifacts from our course textbook* and develop a focused cultural analysis based on one of the following five topics:

How does the intersection of gender and economic or social class inform the construction or creation of visual or written artifacts from a specific historical period?
How does the intersection of gender and ethnicity, “race,” or national origin inform the construction or creation of visual or written artifacts from a specific historical period?
How are attitudes and approaches to gender expressed differently across the generations? (Please select artifacts that are at least 35 years apart.)
How are attitudes and approaches to gender represented differently in diverse geographic regions within the United States (e.g. North-South; East Coast-Western territories; urban-rural)?
How have specific male historical figures contributed to and/or productively informed women’s rights movements in the United States and what does this reveal about the construction of gender in our culture?
