Description: "Wish Hattie had been born a boy," her father said of his bright, quick-witted daughter. A girl could never become a preacher and influence people, as he did. But later, Harriet Beecher did influence our entire nation -- by writing a book against slavery.

The fight for equal rights began nearly 200 years before Harriet was born. A strong, wise woman named Ann Hutchingson was banished from Boston for daring to discuss her preacher's sermons -- and for saying Indians should not be slaves.

These women are proof that the world has many places and possibilities for women as for men.
