Women and Social Movements in the United States is a resource for students and scholars of U.S. history and U.S. women's history. Organized around the history of women in social movements in the U.S. between 1600 and 2000, this collection seeks to advance scholarly debates and understanding about U.S. history generally at the same time that it makes the insights of women's history accessible to teachers and students at universities, colleges, and high schools. The collection currently includes 91 document projects and archives with more than 3,600 documents and 150,000 pages of additional full-text documents, and more than 2,060 primary authors. It also includes book, film, and website reviews, notes from the archives, and teaching tools. For more advanced work with the site you can access the online version of Notable American Women or the database on Commissions on the Status of Women separately. Learn more >>

Since October 2008, the web site has been operating under a new architecture; users will continue to have access to Women and Social Movements on the old platform, located at: http://asp6new.alexanderstreet.com/wass/.
