Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888), well-known for her timeless novel Little Women, was also an outspoken advocate for the abolishment of slavery and the rights of women. The Alcott family was deeply rooted in Concord, Massachusetts, the setting for Little Women and one of forty-five communities in the Freedom's Way National Heritage Area. Hear Louisa's story in this episode of Heritage Stories: Visionaries Experimenters by watching the video below. • Heritage Stories is an exciting multi-year project of the Freedom’s Way Heritage National Heritage Area that uses state-of-the-art media to share the stories of the visionaries and experimenters that lived within its boundaries with the widest possible audience. During 2020, Freedom's Way is commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Women's Right to Vote through a year-long thematic focus on the people, places and objects from throughout the Heritage Area that are associated with stories of the 19th Amendment, civics, and women’s history. • Freedom's Way National Heritage Area is one of 55 National Heritage Areas in the United States. We work in partnership with the National Park Service and hundreds of community partner organizations to preserve and promote the regional identity of 45 communities in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
