Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: This presentation challenges the idea of "Middle America" of the Seventies as a monolithic, politically reactionary space and reconsiders the relationship between television, rural female audiences, and feminist outreach. Using case studies of rural women interviewed during the 1970s in a variety of journalistic sources, including feminist newsletters and mainstream magazines, I argue for a more nuanced understanding of the regional and material complexities of women’s lives in rural America, “Middle American” women’s perceived anti-feminism, and the critical role television played in bridging spatial and ideological divisions among U.S. women during the 1970s.
