Florence Kelley initiated the Social Justice Feminism movement, and her starting goal was to pass a labor of legislation with the expectation that it would protect everyone, regardless of gender. She wanted to fight for working women to have equal opportunities.[1] Kelley strived to get women on board to protect workers and children who face ruthless conditions in regards to unregulated capitalism. She grew up with these ideas, because her family was an activist family. Her father, William, was an abolitionist as well as a founder of the Republican Party. He helped push her to attend college because he was also an early advocate of women's suffrage.[2] The First and Second stages of social justice feminism faced a great deal of success between 1908 through 1918. Kelley, along with other feminists, worked to promote and pass labor laws. Their success directed the creation of the Women's Joint Legislative Conference (WJLC), along with he commencement of the Third stage of the social justice feminism movement.[3]
In the early 1920's there was a decline in the Social Justice Feminism movement. A labor activist, Rose Schneiderman, created the Bryn Mawr Summer School for working women. This was created to assist in offering education for young women who work, in order to help preserve the importance of Social Justice Feminism[4] By 1929 the Social Justice Feminism movement restored its power with its cooperation and agreement with the governor of New York, Franklin D. Roosevelt. Not only did he support the movement, but he also pursued to pass a minimum wage bill for working women.[3] Social Justice Feminism shares many qualities with Feminist Legal Theory, closely relating to critical race feminism. Feminism aspirations are to change the way we view gender relations and to prevent discrimination based on racial and ethnic groups or classes. Social Justice requires the examination of the basic structure of society.[5]
