  • Description

    The story of colonial settlement is often told as if men were the only actors, but women–as wives, agricultural workers, domestic servants, members of religious congregations, community builders, and mothers of a new generation–were crucial to European settlements just as women in Native American groups were to theirs. Life for women and men began to change in the late 17th century as slavery became an accepted economic solution. In the North, cities such as New York, Boston, and Philadelphia saw thousands of new immigrants living side by side with Anglo Americans, enslaved African Americans, and a growing free black community.
