Most histories of Pullman focus on the men behind the "model town" experiment.&nbsp; But what changes when we focus on the experiences of women?&nbsp; Dr. Lauren Finnigan of Indiana University (South Bend) will explore how women's labor - both the "necessary" and the "ornamental" - shaped life at Pullman and created real forms of power within a highly controlled system.&nbsp; Rather than simply existing in an oppressive and paternalistic environment, we'll learn how women navigated, influenced, and often reshaped that world in unexpected ways.&nbsp; PLEASE NOTE: This program will take place at the&nbsp;Dolphin Lake Clubhouse, 2700 183rd St., Homewood.)This event is free and open to the public. Please join us for light refreshments before the program.
