Book Synopsis "Turning the World Upside Down" by : Joyce A. Lochhead
Download or read book "Turning the World Upside Down" written by Joyce A. Lochhead. This book was released on 2014. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1830 and 1850, women became a significant force within the anti-slavery movement in America. They formed female anti-slavery societies and coordinated their efforts by conducting women's national anti-slavery conventions. Women were involved in other reform movements at the time, but in comparison to abolitionism, these organizations endured far less opposition. Quaker ideals played an influential role that helped women abolitionists stand up to opposing attitudes of the nineteenth century. The work accomplished by women abolitionists from 1830 to 1850 reformed women's roles through their determination to overcome the forces opposed to the anti-slavery cause. Criticism by conservative religious leaders, public opposition, gender bias, and racial discrimination led women to challenge the gender barriers of the nineteenth century, creating opportunities for the birth of the women's rights movement by 1850.

Book Synopsis Revolutionary Backlash by : Rosemarie Zagarri
Download or read book Revolutionary Backlash written by Rosemarie Zagarri. This book was released on 2011-06-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Seneca Falls Convention is typically seen as the beginning of the first women's rights movement in the United States. Revolutionary Backlash argues otherwise. According to Rosemarie Zagarri, the debate over women's rights began not in the decades prior to 1848 but during the American Revolution itself. Integrating the approaches of women's historians and political historians, this book explores changes in women's status that occurred from the time of the American Revolution until the election of Andrew Jackson. Although the period after the Revolution produced no collective movement for women's rights, women built on precedents established during the Revolution and gained an informal foothold in party politics and male electoral activities. Federalists and Jeffersonians vied for women's allegiance and sought their support in times of national crisis. Women, in turn, attended rallies, organized political activities, and voiced their opinions on the issues of the day. After the publication of Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, a widespread debate about the nature of women's rights ensued. The state of New Jersey attempted a bold experiment: for a brief time, women there voted on the same terms as men. Yet as Rosemarie Zagarri argues in Revolutionary Backlash, this opening for women soon closed. By 1828, women's politicization was seen more as a liability than as a strength, contributing to a divisive political climate that repeatedly brought the country to the brink of civil war. The increasing sophistication of party organizations and triumph of universal suffrage for white males marginalized those who could not vote, especially women. Yet all was not lost. Women had already begun to participate in charitable movements, benevolent societies, and social reform organizations. Through these organizations, women found another way to practice politics.
