行動主義者珍‧亞當斯 (Jane Addams) 出生於186096

做為一個年輕的婦女,珍‧亞當斯並不知道她的下一步要做什麼。亞當斯於1860年9月6日出生在伊利諾州的席達威爾 (Cedarville) 市,當時社會對婦女的期待就是結婚生子。亞當斯知道她想要做一些不一樣的事情。

她後來決定為爭取兒童權益與幫助窮人而奮鬥,後來她更成為第一位贏得諾貝爾和平獎的美國女性。


As a young woman, Jane Addams did not know what she wanted to do with her life. Born September 6, 1860, in Cedarville, Illinois, Addams grew up in an era when women were expected to marry and raise children. Addams knew she wanted to do something different.

She found the inspiration that would lead her to fight for the rights of children, help the poor, and become the first American woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
