Sojourner Truth

“Ain’t I a Woman?”
Sojourner Truth

The content of this essay is emotionally charged. When reading it, I could not help but empathize for the women that lived in this time period and more specifically, the African American women. African American women suffered through great injustice and discrimination.
The author of this essay frequently failed to use correct English. Despite the negative connotations that are normally associated with this, I feel like it added to the piece. This misuse helps the reader to picture and understand the context that this is written in.
