Fierce Desires: A New History of Sex and Sexuality in America

March 15 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

March 15, 11:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. Minnesota History Center. $15.

In her new book Fierce Desires, Rebecca L. Davis charts the shifting and multiple roles that sex and sexuality have played in our societies and identities over more than 400 years. Drawing on a wealth of sources, Davis’s rigorous research and wide scope provides the oft-missing historical depth needed to understand how and why sexuality and gender have taken center stage in some of today’s most polarizing debates. Featuring stories across a wide spectrum of the United States, Davis demonstrates how fiercely we have valued our desires, and how far we are willing to go to defend them.
