Wright, an early women's rights advocate and a social reformer, was the first woman to deliver public lectures to men and women on political social reform issues in the United States in the late 1820s. Her views on slavery, theology, and women's rights were considered radical for that time, and attracted harsh criticism from the press and clergy.<ref>{{cite book | author=Buhle, Paul; Mari Jo Buhle; and Elizabeth Cady Stanton | title =The Concise History of Woman Suffrage: Selections from the Classic Work of Stanton, Anthony, Gage, and Harper | publisher =University of Illinois Press | year =1978 | location =Urbana | pages=3 and 61 | isbn =9780252006913}}</ref>
