Red-state politics in and out of the college classroom For two decades, I have taught U.S. women’s and gender history at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, a blue town in a blue state, marooned in an ocean of red.

As I prepared to teach about abortion and gay rights for the first time in 2003, I approached the classroom with trepidation.
