Explanation:

Sojourner Truth was renowned in her time for her speaking and singing ability. Although she could neither read nor write, she had people read to her, especially the Bible, and from this she developed her unique voice about how the world worked and how it could be improved. She sounds like a down-to-earth preacher in many of her speeches.

“Throughout her rhetoric she employed her characteristic sharp wit and her engaging narrative style as she sought to influence her hearers.” (Fitch and Mandziuk, p. 89)

“As one of the few African American women speaking publicly at the time, the renown and respect Truth achieved for herself truly were remarkable.” (Fitch and Mandziuk, ibid)

“Women leaders of that time were very impressed with her. Lucy Stone described Truth as ‘wise, unselfish, brave and good’ and Elizabeth Cady Stanton wrote of ‘the marvelous wisdom and goodness of this remarkable woman.’” (Fitch and Mandziuk, p. 90)

The accuracy of this account has been challenged for several reasons: the delayed time–twelve years after the event took place, Gage’s use of a southern dialect, choice of language, and some clear errors about Sojourner’s life. Gage reports Sojourner saying she had “borne 13 children and seen ‘em mos’ all sold off to slavery,” but she had five chSojourner Truth was renowned in her time for her speaking and singing ability.
