Sobre IBD

A Woman’s Life-Work - Labors and Experiences of Laura S. Haviland by Laura S. Haviland is a heartfelt and compelling historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the life and dedicated efforts of Laura S. Haviland, an abolitionist and educator, as she recounts her tireless work in the fight against slavery and her advocacy for education for freedmen and women. The narrative opens with Haviland reflecting on the motivations behind documenting her experiences, detailing the injustices she witnessed and her deeply ingrained religious convictions. Growing up in a Quaker family, Haviland was instilled with a strong sense of morality, which led her to challenge the oppressive systems of her time. Her early childhood inquiries into faith and morality set the stage for her future activism, as she recounts the emotional and spiritual impact of witnessing the brutalities of slavery. The book explores her personal losses and the broader societal issues surrounding the abolition movement, emphasizing her unwavering commitment to social reform. This inspiring narrative offers both emotional depth and historical insight, capturing Haviland’s profound impact on the abolitionist movement and her lifelong dedication to justice and equality.
