JANUARY MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT
Join us for the Guild’s January 23, 2025 meeting and hear Dr. Kimberly Jensen, Professor of History and Gender Studies at Western Oregon University, talk about her new book, Oregon’s Others: Gender, Civil Liberties, and the Surveillance State in the Early Twentieth Century. Oregon’s Others explores the era of the First World War and efforts to identify and restrict “alien enemies,” implement eugenic policies and curtail the rights of women, and examines the collision of civil liberties and persecution through the lens of gender, gender identity and presentation, ability, race, ethnicity, and class.
