LAD#17-"Ain't I a Woman" Speech

"Ain't I a Woman" Speech, Sojourner Truth, 1851

In this speech, Sojourner Truth discusses her views on feminism and slavery. She wonders why men feel like women should be treated so delicately, if women like Sojourner work just as hard as men. She also wonders why she doesn't get treated like a lady due to her slavery. This speech goes along with the belief that all people, men, women, and blacks, should be treated equally.
