Abolitionism & Feminism By John Callahan

Objective To read, synthesize, analyze and discuss the text and related materials pertaining to the Abolitionist movement and the Feminist movement.

Why we study these movements. Abolitionism and Feminism are the foundation upon which all social reform movements of today are based.

Frederick Douglass A former slave who taught himself to read and write and became a champion of the Abolitionist movement.

The North Star Douglass’ newspaper in which he advocated resistance by African American.

Think What was the importance of having a self educated former slave as a primary champion of the Abolitionist movement?

Seneca Falls An important meeting of advocates of the Feminist movement.

Susan B. Anthony A tireless champion of the Feminist movement.

Suffrage The right to vote.

Think Wyoming was the first state to grant suffrage to women. Were the members of this state particularly enlightened or were there other motives for this arrangement?

Requirement for Statehood Any territory that applied for statehood needed a minimum of 5000 registered voters men did not live in the Wyoming territory so women were granted suffrage and Wyoming became a state.

Who Bridged Abolitionism & Feminism One charismatic orator was able to combine these similar causes without damaging either platform.

Sojourner Truth Born in 1797 in Hurley, NY. Birth Name: Isabella Baumfree Born into slavery Sold several times before being freed in 1827 when NY Abolished slavery.

Fact Vs. Myth Because Truth could not write, all accounts of her life and exploits are second hand. Writers, struck by her oratory prowess, often took liberties with the facts of Truth’s reform agenda. The very fact that her contemporaries tended to embellish her exploits speaks to the astounding attention she commanded.

Aren’t I A Woman As reported by Marius Robinson, editor of the Anti-Slavery Bugle, Salem, OH, June 21, 1851

Aren’t I A Woman As reported by Frances Dana Gage (Twelve years after the actual speech)

Video Questions Where did Sojourner Truth get her name? Which amendment to the Constitution granted suffrage to women and minorities?
