Josephine Elizabeth Butler, a pioneering English feminist and social reformer of the Victorian era, championed numerous groundbreaking causes from 1828 until her passing in 1906. With unwavering dedication, she fought tirelessly for women's suffrage, advocating that women be granted equal rights to education, an end to coverture laws in British jurisprudence, and the eradication of child prostitution throughout Europe. Additionally, Butler actively sought to abolish human trafficking, working relentlessly to protect young women and children from exploitation by those who would traffic them into European brothels.
