Anne is often overlooked when placed alongside her two sisters, Charlotte and Emily, the former of which is most widely known, due to her immensely successful and remarkable novel, Jane Eyre. The feminist community, however, has surely not forgotten her, for in the words of Lucy Mangan, Anne is “the forgotten genius - a feminist and social firebrand whose ideas were way over Charlotte’s head and years before their time.” [...]
Feminism is to remember Anne in her spirit, and to remember Anne in her final words, striving to do just what she said before leaving our world, “take courage.” (Noor Zohdy)
