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.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Not all land was suitable for the growth of cotton.

While the south was generally good for growing cotton, it couldn't be grown everywhere. The right soil and water conditions were needed to grow cotton and preferably would be grown on a large, flat piece of land as well. Unlike cotton, rice grows best in wet soil and tobacco grew well in the climates of Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee.
