Julia Ward Howe was an activist for Women's Rights, especially the right to vote. She fought to end slavery, fought for prison reform, and campaigned for a "Mother's Day for Peace" in 1870, which led to Mother's Day.
The Battle Hymn of the Republic song came to life in February 1862 during the Civil War. The words were written by Julia Ward Howe, and the music is to the tune of "John Brown's Body," which was a popular Marching song of the Union that recognized the abolotionist John Brown who was executed in 1859.
