- For a nation fighting for freedom, American women had limited political and economic rights under the U.S. government during the War of 1812. Some women expressed dissatisfaction with limitations in the new nation that claimed to value equality, personal freedom, and opportunity for political and economic advancement among its citizens. Some began to shape new entrepreneurial paths for themselves by working outside the domestic realm to support their families. The Pritzker Military Museum & Library joins Kate Hardy of the National Park Service to learn about the courageous activities of women during the War of 1812. Our education webinars are free of charge, and live participation in our webinar Q & A is encouraged.
Sad, they spoke mostly of women doing domestic duties. what about the women who discussed themselves as men, to fight on the battlefield? Oh, that's right, do not want to hurt the male ego.
