Juliann Jane Tillman
A preacher in the 1840's when Sojourner Truth began to preach. In the 1840's, restrictions were set upon woman of color by the African Methodist Episcopal Church and although forbidden Tillman ignored all restrictions and continued preaching in 1844. Tillman lived a very objective life and although she received many objections from both her brother and husband, Tillman took a feminist stance in the masculine domain of clergy.

Being one of the pioneers in the art of feminist sermons, clergymen recognized her and others to have had possessed evangelical and teaching gifts.
