She was the second born of a strongly rooted Quaker family of eight (Hist.Bio.-1). Because they lived in a Quaker neighborhood, Susan was not heavily exposed to slavery.

For example, I knew about the legend of Betsy Ross sewing the first American flag I just didn’t realize how many women historical figures there were.

Zexu does so by exemplifying the past relationship of China and Britain, by moral persuasion, and by warnings and threats.
