Answer:

Margaret fuller was one of the influential women in the society as she spoke up for American women's rights. She was an advocate for the women. She argued for equality of gender and about women being more self-dependent and less dependent on men and was one of the most important early feminist works. She wrote a book titled "Women in the nineteenth century" which really changed the perceptions about men and women. She was the first woman to have access to the Havard library while researching a book on Great lakes legion. In 1839, Fuller was offered the job of editing the Transcendentalists’ magazine – ‘The Dial’ by Ralph Waldo Emerson. The Transcendentalists were an influential philosophical movement in the Nineteenth Century. They believed in personal transformation and looking beyond religious dogmas. Fuller accepted the position and became a leading figure in the Transcendentalist movement.

Harriet Tubman was born into slavery but found her freedom traveling alone via the Underground Railroad. She would go on to free around 300 enslaved people in the years that followed. She began her work on the Underground Railroad by retrieving members of her own family, including her parents, several siblings and various nieces and nephews, according to biography.com. When the Civil War began, she supported the Union, working as a spy and a nurse before leading the daring Combahee Ferry Raid, which freed more than 700 enslaved people. Later in life. At last, she became a prominent voice in the abolitionist movement and also fought for voting rights for women, helping to shape a path from slavery and discrimination toward justice in the United States.
