Lydia Maria Francis Child

    Lydia Maria Child was een activist en schrijfster die haar werken gebruikte om op te komen voor de rechten van de onderdrukten. Haar romans, pamfletten en kinderwerken richtten zich vaak op de verdediging van tot slaaf gemaakte mensen, vrouwen en Native Americans. Child kenmerkte zich door een sterk rechtvaardigheidsgevoel, waarbij ze literaire creatie combineerde met activisme. Haar schrijven wordt beschouwd als een belangrijke bijdrage aan het discours over gelijkheid en menselijkheid van haar tijd.
