Founding Mothers: Women of the New World from the 1500s to 1776

Renee-Noelle Felice, historical interpreter and feminist, examines the pre-1776 history of women–Indian, European and African–whose tales are interwoven with those most of us learned in school. In celebration of the 250th year of the United States, she will introduce us to some of our female forebears, whose courage, initiative and endurance contributed to the founding of our nation.
