Abstract: »This panel brings together five feminist historians who offer comparative analyses of the ways various patriarchal and heteronormative North American cultures from the 19th through 21st centuries normalized and encouraged the systemic physical and sexual violence men inflicted against women and children. By interrogating the historical silences surrounding this persistent (and persistently ignored) human rights crisis, the panel will elevate silenced voices and demonstrate how gender violence is not and has never been inevitable. Rather, it has been aproduct of socially constructed legal and communal systems that privileged men at the expense of women and children.« (Source: Online Program)
