dbo:abstract
  • The Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Society (PFASS) was founded in December 1833 and dissolved in March 1870 following the ratification of the 14th and 15th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. It was founded by eighteen women, including Mary Ann M'Clintock, Margaretta Forten, her mother Charlotte, and Forten's sisters Sarah and Harriet. The society was a local chapter affiliated with the American Anti-Slavery Society created the same year by William Lloyd Garrison and other leading male abolitionists. The PFASS was formed as a result of the inability of women to become members of the male abolitionist organization. This predominantly white though racially mixed female abolitionist organization illustrates the important behind-the-scenes collective roles women played in the abolitionist movement. It also exemplifies the dynamics of gender and race within American patriarchal society that emphasized the cult of true womanhood (or cult of domesticity) in the nineteenth century. (en)

PFASS illustrerade den framträdande och aktiva roll kvinnor spelade inom den amerikanska abolitioniströrelsen, som annars oftast var informell, och den följdes snart av fler abolitionistföreningar för kvinnor. Genom att organisera kvinnor i en politiskt aktiv förening utmanade den det rådande amerikanska kvinnoidealet, den så kallade cult of domesticity. Den innefattade både vita och färgade medlemmar och utmanade därmed även i den meningen dåtidens normer. En stor del av dess vita medlemmar var kväkare. Bland dess mer berömda medlemmar fanns Lucretia Mott, Angelina Grimké, , , och . (sv)
