    Ellen Garrison Jackson

    "Nine years older than Louisa May Alcott, Ellen Garrison Jackson was a black girl in Concord, Mass., the second generation to live in her family’s homestead. Like Alcott, she grew up in a family committed to radical social change. Her mother worked as an abolitionist, occasionally working in coalition with white female activists in Concord. In 1866, she initiated an early lawsuit over segregation in public transportation, testing the nation’s first Civil Rights Act." -- "The Bearable Whiteness of 'Little Women," by Kaitlyn Greenidge, The New York Times, Jan. 13, 2020.
