Program Description
When we think of the American Civil War, we often think of the men who defended the union and those who claimed to defend states’ rights. But what about the women whose lives were influenced by the decisions of others? Sarah Osburn Brady brings to life the stories of three remarkable women of the American Civil War: Mary Walker, a Union army doctor and Medal of Honor recipient; Sarah Grimke, one of two women from South Carolina to become a vocal part of the abolitionist movement as well as an early proponent of rights for all women; and Ellen Craft, a woman born enslaved and willing to do whatever necessary to obtain the freedom she deserved.
