SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH: SOUTHERN METHODIST WOMEN AND SOCIAL JUSTICE with Janet Allured
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we celebrate more than a century of Methodist women who have spoken up\, stepped out\, and stood firm in their faith to bring about change. Their stories remind us that the work of justice is not reserved for a few but is carried forward by many voices\, each adding courage and conviction to the movement for a better world. \nThe biographies in this book highlight the contributions of Methodist women—some lay and some clergy—in advocating for progressive reform from 1900 to the present. \n\nEditor: Janet Allured is a retired Professor of History and of Women’s Studies at McNeese State University and is an adjunct faculty member at the University of Arkansas. She has numerous peer-reviewed publications on southern women\, including Louisiana Women: Their Lives and Times (2009)\, and Remapping Second-Wave Feminism: The Long Women’s Rights Movement in Louisiana\, 1950-1997 (2016). The subject of her talk today\, a collection of biographies entitled Southern Methodist Women and Social Justice: Interracial Activism in the Long Twentieth Century (2025)\, is co-edited by M. Kathryn Armistead. \nPlease REGISTER for the reading by selecting a free ticket below. A Zoom link will be provided in the confirmation email.
