As the American colonies moved toward independence in 1776, Abigail Adams famously urged her husband, John Adams, to "remember the ladies" while shaping the new government.

Join Dr. Wendy Gordon, History Professor at SUNY Plattsburgh, as she explores the remarkable contributions of these women and the lasting impact they had on the founding of the new nation.
