Jenny+Ci.+-+I+am+Angelina+Grimke

My I Am person is Angelina Grimke. I didn't really know about the person I chose. I only knew that she had a sister, and that she worked against slavery. I was curious about her personality as well as her relationship with her family. I wanted to know circumstances behind her adaption as goddaughter to her sister Sarah. Also, I was curious about her marriage to Theodore Weld. Theodore Weld was known to be a feminist as well as an abolitionist, and I wonder if this affected their marriage somehow. What is your primary historical question?


 * How did Angelina Grimke grow to oppose slavery although she was born in a slaveholding family?**
