The Emancipator was one of several publications by the American Anti-Slavery Society. First published in May 1833 in New York City, the title of the publication changed several times, as did its editors and publishers. When Joshua Leavitt became the editor in 1840, the Emancipator became a leading abolitionist newspaper. He focused on the political and moral issues related to the abolition of slavery.
In December 1841 the Free American, the official paper of the Massachusetts Abolition Society, merged with the Emancipator and the editors renamed it the Emancipator and Free American.
The Emancipator ran for 18 years and became one of the most widely circulated antislavery newspapers in the country.

The Portland Transcript was published weekly from 1849 to 1910. Its tagline was "An independent family journal of literature, news, &c."
This issue contains an article entitled "Nathaniel Hawthorne on women's rights." In his short statement (p. 221) the author contends that women should remain within their own proper sphere: "Her place is at man's side. Her office, that of sympathizer; the unreserved, unquestioning believer . . . . The heart of true womanhood knows where its own sphere is, and never seeks to stray beyond it."

The Liberator
The Liberator (1831-1865) was an abolitionist newspaper founded by William Lloyd Garrison and Isaac Knapp. The newspaper called for the "Immediate and complete emancipation of all slaves." The Liberator also advocated for women's rights by printing editorials, petitions, convention calls, speeches, and other material to promote women's equality. The motto was "Our Country is the World, our Countrymen are all Mankind."
Over its 35 year run, Garrison published 1,820 issues, ending in 1865 after the end of the Civil War. This issue was the newspaper's final issue. It includes a poem by a woman identified as Carrie from Brooklyn, New York, entitled "A Farewell to the Liberator." There are also tributes to Garrison and to the paper.

The Revolution was a weekly newspaper created by Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton in New York City. It was the official publication of the National Woman Suffrage Association, published from January 8, 1868 until February 17, 1872. The motto was "Principle, not policy; Justice, not favors. Men, their rights and nothing more; Women their rights and nothing less." Circulation never exceeded 3,000, but was very influential on the women's equality movement. In 1870, Laura Curtis Bullard bought The Revolution for one dollar from Anthony.

In 1870, Lucy Stone and her husband, Henry Browne Blackwell, founded The Woman’s Journal, a weekly newspaper. Their daughter, Alice Stone Blackwell began work as an editor in 1883 and became the sole editor until 1917. At its founding, the Woman's Journal absorbed the Woman’s Advocate. In 1910 it absorbed the National American Woman Suffrage Association's (NAWSA) publication, Progress.

From 1917-1920, the Woman Citizen was the official organ of NAWSA and was published weekly, biweekly, and finally monthly until December 1927, when it was once again named The Woman’s Journal. It ceased publication in June 1931.
