Lydia Maria Child byla aktivistka a spisovatelka, která využívala své psaní k obhajobě utlačovaných. Její díla, včetně románů a pamfletů, se často zaměřovala na práva otroků, žen a původních obyvatel Ameriky. Childová často využívala svou literární platformu k prosazování sociální spravedlnosti a rovnosti. Její odkaz spočívá v její neochvějné oddanosti aktivismu a vlivu, který měla na společenské reformy prostřednictvím svého psaní.
