Most definitely. Even as a 16 year old, writing as "Silence Dogood," he advocated for women getting an education equal to that of men.

Franklin first thought people of African descent were intellectually inferior to those of European descent, and thus the former were only worthy of being slaves. He eventually realized that, if properly educated, those of African descent were no less capable of intellectual endeavors.
