Ain't I A Women?
In this poem, a women in church stands up for her rights as a women. Sojourner Truth proves her point using example such as how they say women need to be helped into carriages, but she's never been helped. Why? because she's a black women. She can do everything a man can do but she still gets no respect for it because in this time, the color of your skin came before everything else. She persuaded the readers by using repetition, she repeated the same phrases to get her message across to us. Nor only that, but she also included analogies in her poem so that we could understand her reasons better.
