Review Of Sojourner Truth: Ain't I A Woman By Patricia & Frederick McKissack

Sojourner Truth: Ain't I A Woman? by Patricia C. McKissack and Frederick McKissack tells of one of our great ancestors. Sojourner Truth was one of the strongest people to live in this land. As a slave Truth was worked hard by her slave masters until she found one that would let her earn her freedom. Truth was then worked harder. Freedom is not cheap in the world of white supremacy. After Truth gained her freedom she created a new life for herself by working hard of course. For a slave to be free of the system that enslaves them means freedom to starve. Truth did not starve, she became one of the loudest anti slavery voices of all time. This book is easy to read and informative to anyone interested in important figures of the United States. Sojourner Truth: Ain't I A Woman is a book for all ages.
