Active Bodies - Verbrugge, Martha H. (Presidential Professor of History, Emerita, Presidential Professor of History, Emerita, Bucknell University)

Active Bodies examines the ideas, programs, and experiences of white and black female physical educators from the introduction of mandatory gym class through the recent revolution in women's sports. Amidst sweeping changes in science, feminism, and attitudes about gender, race, and sexuality, women teachers debated how to achieve equity for their female students and themselves.
