Narrative of Sojourner Truth

Autor Sojourner Truth Editat de Olive Gilbert
en Limba Engleză Paperback
"If women want rights more than they got,
why don't they just take them, and not be talking about it."
--- Sojourner Truth
The Narrative of Sojourner Truth is the gripping autobiographical account of Sojourner Truths life as a slave in pre-Civil War New York State, and her eventual escape to Freedom. Since Sojourner could neither read or write, she dictated her story to Olive Gilbert after they met at a Women's Rights rally. The Narrative was first published in 1850, and was widely distributed by the Abolitionist Movement. It was one of the catalysts for the rise of anti-slavery public opinion in the years leading up to the Civil War. Though Olive Gilbert's writing about Sojourner takes on a patronizing tone at times (a weakness of some Abolitionists), The Narrative of Sojourner Truth remains a moving and historic document, chronicling the struggles of African-Americans under slavery and the life of a truly remarkable woman.

Notă biografică

Sojourner Truth (1797-1883) was an African American activist and preacher. She was born into slavery in New York but in 1826, she and her daughter escaped to freedom. A couple years later she would return to successfully recover her remaining child. As a free woman, Truth worked various jobs to support her family. She also converted to Christianity and became a traveling preacher. Through her connections with local abolitionists, she famously spoke at a women¿s rights convention where she delivered the speech, "Ain't I a Woman?," which declared the need for racial and gender equality.
