Excerpt from Aln't I a Women? by Sojourner Truth (from the Anti-Slavery Bugle)
Sojourner Truth was born into slavery in the United States and gained her freedom as an adult. She gave this speech in 1851 at a women's right's
convention
I want to say a few words about this matter of women's rights). I am a woman's rights [reformer). I have as much muscle as any man, and can do as
much work as any man. I have as much muscle as any man, and can do as much work as any man. I have plowed and reaped and husked and
chopped and mowed, and can any man do more than that? I have heard much about the sexes being equal; I can carry as much as any man, and can
eat as much too, if I can get it. I am strong as any man that is now.
As for intellect, all I can say is, if woman have a pint and man a quart-why can't she have her little pint full? You need not be afraid to give us our
rights for fear we will take too much--for we won't take more than our pint'll hold.
The poor men seem to be all in confusion and don't know what to do. Why children, if you have woman's rights give it to her and you will feel better.
You will have your own rights, and they won't be so much trouble.
I can't read, but I can hear. I have heard the Bible and have learned that Eve caused man to sin. Well if woman upset the world, do give her a chance
