Women's Social Clubs
When Charles Dickens banned women from dinner, FDR forced Japanese Americans into Internment Camps, and symbolic Civil Rights Legislation was in peril, Women's Social Clubs were the solution. Get to know clubwomen of yore, who were so much more than the white-gloved-ladies-who-lunch that they've been reduced to. Thanks to our presenting sponsor SAP.

Customer Reviews
Fantastic!
I love these episodes. Please make more!!
Great!
More episodes please!
Engaging and insightful
Alexis Coe brings history to life in this “podcast about women who were too bad for your textbooks.” It gets intense so would recommend listening without any young kids around. Every episode is very well researched and presented - the Silvia Plath episode was my favorite and I hope more episodes will drop soon!
