8 0

The Grimke sisters were Quakers who were known to have a belief of equality between the races and the sexes. After moving to Pennsylvania, the sisters became active on the lecture circuit informing people about abolition but also fighting for women's rights. They brought the two ideas of the two movements together initiating the idea that all people in the US should be granted the rights of citizenship and freedom. These women were the first females to lecture publicly in addition to writing articles for abolitionist newspapers. They were able to propel the abolitionist movement forward and incorporate female reformers into the movement. Additionally they worked on beginning the feminist movement leading to the 1848 Seneca Falls Convention held by Elizabeth Cady Stanton.

Flura [38]

In the modern era, the equivalent practice of using the presidency as a bully pulpit (Theodore Roosevelt) could best be summed up in the phrase, "going public". President Theodore Roosevelt took an unrestricted view of his job. In two administrations, he never hesitated to take his case - controversies - directly to the people (a Presidency called “bully pulpit”). He was the typical proactive President of the 19th century.

Bully pulpit is the ability to use the Presidency´s office to influence Congress to accept legislative proposals. An active use of the Presidency’s prestige to inspire/moralize.
