Klappentext
The autobiography of a Black woman who defied ninteteenth-century conventions to become a preacher, popular orator, abolitionist, and women's rights activist.Sojourner Truth was an incredible, remarkable, epoch-defying woman. She escaped from slavery, successfully sued for her son's freedom, became a wildly successful preacher, public speaker, abolitionist, and women's rights activist-a woman alive to the ironies and hypocrisies of her age, and unafraid to talk about them.
Her autobiography, which she dictated, is an outstanding story and historical document. Truth's tale sheds a light on realities of slavery that are still rarely discussed: that she was a slave in upstate New York, not on a Southern plantation; that Dutch was her first language; that the circumstances of her slavery isolated her from a broader Black community; that her experience of religion was a racially integrated one, and became the means of her independence. Ultimately, The Narrative of Sojourner Truth is a unique historical document and the moving story of a great American.
