The term means a woman involved in earning women's rights. Women now have the same rights as men, but that wasn't always the case. In the early 20th century women couldn't vote in elections and the vast majority could only get jobs as house servants. The battle for equality lasted a long time. It wasn't until the 19th amendment was added to the constitution in 1919, did women win the right to vote.
