题目材料：
One of the founders of the transatlantic women' s rights movement, Lucretia Mott was no less committed to the cause of abolishing slavery than she was to the cause of feminism. The latest studies of the nineteenth-century United States women' s rights movement rightly focus on the racism of most post-Civil War woman suffragists. This postwar narrative of conflict between feminists and abolitionists also influences the way historians tell the story of the birth of the women' s rights movement. According to legend, the meeting of Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton at the World' s Anti-Slavery Convention in London in 1840 precipitated the first women' s rights convention at Seneca Falls. In this version, the women' s rights movement began with male delegates' rejection of Mott and other female abolitionists' right of movement and their access to the convention. Rather than a reaction to sexism, however, Mott' s recruiting of the London convention suggests that women' s rights were a logical extension of interconnected humanitarian concerns. She also believed the snub of the female delegates less important than the convention' s anti-slavery goals. Eight years later at Seneca Falls, Mott urged convention participants to consider the relationship between women' s rights and other reforms, including anti-slavery, prison reform, temperance, and pacifism. After the American Civil War, as other activists split over the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments [to the Constitution, the former granting former slaves citizenship, the latter granting African American men the right to vote], she and her allies in the Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Society fought segregation on Philadelphia's railway lines and streetcars.
