Three paragraphs covering 1817 to 1829 are unclear concerning location in Charleston or in Philadelphia (and points further North). For instance, I guess but can't be sure that she has traveled N to Philadelphia again, so that "She was stymied, however, when she was repeatedly ignored and shut out by the male-dominated council." means stymied in Philadelphia and the male-dominated Quaker council. For another instance, does Angelina leave Charleston three times from early 1827 to late 1829, or only twice?
Anyway, is it certain that Angelina did not finally move from Charleston until late 1829? If so then her biography should be changed at both (a) lead: "she spent her entire adult life living in the North" and (b) section 3: "After her self-induced exile from South Carolina in 1827".
According to Mark Perry'sLift Up Thy Voice: The Grimké Family's from Slaveholders to Civil Rights Leaders, Sarah Moore Grimké left Charleston for Philadelphia in 1821. Later that year she returned for a while, returning to Philadelphia in 1822. She returned to Charleston again in 1827 and went back north in 1828. In total she made 5 visits to Charleston, the last one Perry mentions is in 1832. (Although I'd be surprised if she didn't go back when her mother died in 1865).
Angelina did indeed leave Charleston for Philadelphia in 1829, according to Perry. I find no record in Perry that she visited Charleston after that, but her rellationship with their mother, Mary Smith Grimkè, was more fraught than Sarah's - in fact, she looked as Sarah as her mother-figure. Sarah went back to Charleston to see and help her mother, but I presume that Angelina felt no such desiire.
Anyway, I'd have to read the book (or a lot of it) through again to be sure, instead of leafing through it guided by the index, but that's what I believe occured,BMK (talk)23:07, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Within the section headed with the above title is the statement:
"...her views on women's rights were rooted in the Bible. She has strong opinions..."
This, at the very least, needs some kind of citation, since it is on its face, utter nonsense, the Bible containing many passages that imply and/or command the inequality of men and women. It is possible that her views on women were informed by specific passages of the bible or by the entire bible idiosyncratically interpreted, but it is not possible for her progressive views to be "rooted" in the bible in any objective sense. The statement needs to be either clarified or removed.
In the beginning of the following sentence, the word 'has' implies that she is still living and should be changed to 'had'.Baon (talk)15:52, 29 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hey just thought I’d bring to notice that Sarah’s personal slave Hetty is in fact a fictional character from the book “The Invention of Wings” by Sue Monk Kidd... probably should not be in a real biography about Sarah unless you add a section of fictional representations of SarahAllycoughlan (talk)03:49, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
