Yes, she was a Republican, but her fellow Republicans in Kansas voted down two separate referenda granting suffrage to blacks and women, respectively, which she was supporting.

She later ended up on different sides from Frederick Douglas and began devoting herself exclusively to expanding equal rights to women.

It’s funny though how they can’t find any civil-rights-supporting Republicans any more recently than Eisenhower.

Why is that?
