  Grimke Sisters (Sarah and Angelina)
Slaves worked as nursemaids to the Grimkés' fourteen children and, in addition, each child was assigned a "constant companion," a slave child of about the same age who catered to his or her needs.
With their father deceased and the Grimké sons married or off at school, Angelina was left to look out for her mother and sisters and manage daily operations of the cotton plantation.
Angelina's letter was reprinted in all the major reform newspapers of the day and was printed with Garrison's Appeal to the Citizens of Boston and the Quaker abolitionist poet John Greenleaf Whittier's antislavery poem Stanzas for the Time in a widely circulated pamphlet.

 Titanic Operas: Elaine Maria Upton
Dickinson, the older of the two, born in 1830, and Grimke, born half a century later in 1880, can both be seen as daughters of the nineteenth- century in the U.S.A. Both were born and grew up in Massachusetts, Emily in Amherst and Angelina in Boston.
Emily, in her relationship with Susan Gilbert (Emily's sister-in-laws), and Angelina, in her relationship with a colleague in Washington, D.C. where she later went to teach, were both apparently sometimes unfulfilled lovers in a world that had little or no tolerance for lesbian relationships.
Grimke, being the younger of the two, would have had the opportunity to read Dickinson's poems, while the possibility did not exist during Dickinson's life (unless she were clairvoyant) for her to read or know Grimke.

Angelina Weld Grimké (not to be confused with her great aunt Angelina Emily Grimké Weld) was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on February 27th in 1880, the only child of Archibald Grimké and Sara Stanley.
Grimké's projected volume thus moves from inner death to outer death, from the metaphorical death and repudiation of the love of one who loves too much to the literal death of a publicly mourned figure in a communal occasion of grief.
Angelina had a mixed racial background; her father was the son of a white man and a fl slave, and her mother was from a prominent white family.

The diary that Angelina Grimké (1805–1879) kept from 1828 through 1835 offers a window into the spiritual struggles and personal evolution of a woman who would become one of the nation's most fervent abolitionists.
While Grimké's public persona has been widely studied, the private spiritual and intellectual journey that preceded her public career and pushed her to the forefront of the abolitionist movement is chronicled for the first time in Walking by Faith.
Suggesting that it is not coincidental that her diary ends just as her public life begins, he contends that the construction of her journal provided the necessary bridge from the intuitive to the rational and from the contemplative to the active.
