Grace Bustill Douglass (c. 1782 – March 9, 1842) was an African-American abolitionist and women's rights advocate.
Growing up in Philadelphia allowed Douglass and her siblings to attend one of the few schools for black children during her time.
She was also able to learn a trade, millinery, and she subsequently opened up a milliner shop on Arch Street next to her father's bakery.
For this reason, all of Douglass's children, except Sarah, left the Friends and joined their father at the First African Presbyterian Church.
After the Thirteenth and Fifteenth Amendments were ratified in 1865 and 1870, respectively, the society was dissolved by the members, since they believed that their goal of ending slavery had been achieved.
She was a member of the Anti-Slavery Convention of American Women, an annual meeting of antislavery societies in the free states.
Although Douglass was a Quaker, she was also a delegate at the annual meeting in Philadelphia for the Second African Presbyterian Church, with her husband and her sister, Mary Bustill.
The members of this church thought that equality between the sexes was morally right, and they welcomed women into the organization.
