تعريف lucy stone في الإنجليزية الإنجليزية القاموس.: born Aug. 13, 1818, West Brookfield, Mass., U.S. died Oct. 18, 1893, Dorchester, Mass. U.S. pioneer in the woman suffrage movement. A graduate of Oberlin College (1847), she became a lecturer for the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society. She soon began speaking for women's rights and helped organize women's-rights conventions in the 1850s. She retained her own name after her marriage to Henry Blackwell (1825-1909) as a protest against the unequal laws applicable to married women; other women who later chose to do the same called themselves "Lucy Stoners." In 1869 she and Blackwell helped establish the American Woman Suffrage Association and founded the influential suffrage magazine Woman's Journal, which they edited until their deaths. They were assisted by their daughter Alice Stone Blackwell (1857-1950), who served as chief editor (1893-1917)
