Join Elizabeth Dillenburg as she traces the interconnected histories of girlhood, whiteness, and British colonialism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries through the study of the Girls’ Friendly Society. Her talk—that draws from her new book Empire's daughters: Girlhood, whiteness, and the colonial project–explores the ways in which girls participated in the empire as migrants, settlers, laborers, and creators of colonial knowledge and also how they resisted these prescribed roles and challenged systems of colonial power.
