REL 405 - US Religions, US Revolutions Instructor
Wills

This seminar will address this question by examining several episodes in which religious affiliation shaped action: the movements for American independence in the eighteenth century, abolition in the nineteenth century, women’s rights in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and civil rights in the twentieth and twenty-first.
