Character Information
|
Winifred Beecher Howe was a women's rights activist during the early 20th century.
History
Lisa wanted to go and see her memorial. She explained that Howe led the Floor Mop Rebellion of 1910 and appeared on the highly unpopular 75-cent piece. Most probably based on real-life 19th century American abolitionist and author Harriet Beecher Stowe, who advocated in her works and public life for the end of slavery and women's suffrage.
