This 1-credit course is tied to the visit of our 2019 Distinguished Speaker in the Humanities, Jacquelyn Dowd Hall.  We take the title of our course from her latest book Sisters and Rebels: A Struggle for the Soul of America, which the students will do a close read of this semester.  Hall tells the story of much of the twentieth century from the point of view of three sisters, born into the reactionary late-nineteenth century South, but building lives that take them in three very different directions, including two of the sisters moving in bohemian and socialist circles in Jazz Age New York.  This is a story of social change, of women’s history, of family, and of what we inherit from the past and build out of that inheritance.
