The 19th-century abolitionist movement served to rally the country against slavery and turn the civil war into a battle for freedom. While the abolitionists achieved significant progress in their own time, the battle for equality is still being waged today by organizations such as Black Lives Matter. The Abolitionist and Women's Rights Movements were both hugely successful and had a significant impact on American society. All men and women, regardless of race, religion, or color, are equal, and women are now closer than ever to achieving equal rights in every aspect, because of the dedicated individuals who choose to fight for the rights of others. The aims of both groups were similar and different, as were the strategies they pleaded for, and the triumphs and disappointments they faced along the road.
