Lucy Stone League

The Lucy Stone League, founded in the late 19th century, is named after Lucy Stone, a prominent women's rights activist who kept her maiden name after marriage. The organization advocates for women's rights, particularly the right to retain their surnames after marriage. It promotes gender equality, challenging traditional norms about marriage and identity. The League aims to empower women by highlighting the importance of personal choice and legal recognition of their identities, encouraging a societal shift toward recognizing women's autonomy in both personal and professional contexts.
