In the past, how have women resisted wars they find unjust?
This song, “Here’s the Tender Coming” comes from women’s experiences in the Napoleonic Wars. This song is set in the Tyneside of England, where, during war time, able seamen were often press-ganged on to ships and forced to serve in the Navy. This song is told from a woman’s perspective as she strategizes to hide her husband so he won’t be taken to the wars.
