          White American female advocates of the abolition of slavery and women's rights

          The Grimké sisters, Sarah Moore Grimké (1792–1873) and Angelina Emily Grimké[1] (1805–1879), were the first nationally known white American female advocates of abolitionism and women's rights.[2][3] Both sisters were public speakers, writers, and educators.
