About ‘Women’s Work’

How have broad trends in American economic, legal, and political history encouraged women to take certain jobs and restricted them from β€œmen’s work?” How have race, ethnicity, social class, legal status, sexual orientation, and gender presentation impacted these distinctions? The Center for Women’s History showcases approximately 45 objects from New-York Historical’s own Museum and Library collections to demonstrate how β€œwomen’s work” defies categorization.
