Step by step on the long path of achieving more rights for all people, the perseverance, stubbornness and determination of women like Betsey Bailey, Harriet Bailey and Anna Murray, all women central to Frederick Douglass's life, passed on a better world for all. While the amount of correspondence and information about the great orator's life has been available to researchers, what's been known about the ky role of women in the social reform movements of the 1800s is finally coming to light for interested readers. Author's note: My dad was born in London. My grandparents were English and they became citizens. Their British outlook on life didn't match my mother's Brooklyn Irish Catholic ways or what I had learned from living in France with my family as a girl. Growing up, I watched generational and cultural clashes at holiday meals and saw how grown-ups believed their opinions were right.  Reading became an escape from conflicts at home and a way to make sense of life beyond our house. Decades later, my need to know made me wonder what life was like for Frederick and Anna Douglass's family at the dinner table in Rochester in the 1850s.  During the pandemic, I had time to look into the greater abolitionist circle that the Douglass family was a part of. Pulling together what I learned from scholarly texts and biographies, led me to write All Rights for All: Working for Justice.","brand":"R.
