SUMMARY:The American Revolution in the Gulf South by Dr. Max Grivno
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Max Grivno will present The American Revolution in the Gulf South on Monday April 20 at 6pm at Mississippi University for Women. \nThe history of the American Revolution along the Gulf South is seldom told. Although most of the Europeans who called the region were sympathetic to the British — or at least hoped to remain neutral — the conflict soon engulfed the territory of what would\, in time\, become Louisiana\, Mississippi and Florida. \nDr. Grivno will examine how the American Revolution transformed the Gulf South. How the Americans\, British and Spanish vied for control of the Mississippi River and Gulf seaports\, and how the Choctaws and Chickasaws struggled to preserve their homelands by courting the rival powers. He will discusses the consequences of the Revolution for the people of the Gulf Coast. In the aftermath of the war\, the Spanish and the Americans vied to control Natchez and the territory around present-day Vicksburg\, while native confederacies like the Choctaw and Chickasaw grappled with the rising power of the United States.​ \nDr. Grivno is a Professor of History at the University of Southern Mississippi. In 2011\, he published Gleanings of Freedom: Free Labor and Slavery along the Mason-Dixon Line\, 1790-1860. Dr. Grivno’s teaching interests include the Old South\, slavery\, labor history and Mississippi history.​ \nFor more information\, call the MUW Department of History\, Political Science\, and Geography at (662) 329-7390.

SUMMARY:"Reclaiming Women's Power in the American Revolution" by Dr. Jacqueline Beatty
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Jacqueline Beatty\, Associate Professor of History at York College of Pennsylvania\, will present “Reclaiming Women’s Power in the American Revolution\,” for the Martha Swan Speaker Series on Thursday\, March 19 at 6pm at the Nissan Auditorium on the campus of Mississippi University for Women. \nHer talk is based on research for her book\, In Dependence\, which explores women’s petitions for reprieve\, economic support\, divorce\, and manumission over 70 years stretching before and after the Revolution. In cases from Boston\, Charleston\, and Philadelphia\, she argues that women increasingly asserted rights claims\, though they did so largely within the framework of an apolitical and dependent femininity. \n​ \nThe Martha Swain Speaker Series brings a distinguished person to campus each March to address issues important to women’s interests\, lives\, and experiences. This year’s lecture is also part of the America 250 calendar of events celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The series is funded with a gift made in honor of Dr. Martha Swain\, a scholar of Southern women’s history. \n​ \nAdmission is free and open to the public.​
