Clarina Howard Nichols was one of America's pioneering social reformers. After joining the antislavery migration to Kansas, Nichols championed freedom in the territory, assisted former slaves, and argued successfully for women's suffrage. Nichols's story reveals the role northern women played in "Bleeding Kansas" and how women's rights became entwined in the battle to rid the expanding nation of slavery. Overcoming personal hardships and political barriers, Clarina Howard Nichols developed a public career as a journalist and social reformer, leaving a trail of new rights for women across the nation.
