Was Sojourner Truth a slave-?
Sojourner Truth was another powerful supporter of both abolition and women's rights. She had been born into slavery in about 1797. Her birth name was Isabella Baumfree. She took the name Sojourner Truth because she felt that her mission was to be a sojourner, or traveler, and spread the truth. Though she never learned to read or write, she impressed many well-educated people. One person who thought highly of her was the author Harriet Beecher Stowe. Stowe said that she had never spoken "with anyone who had more…personal presence than this woman." Truth stood six feet tall and was a confident speaker.
What was the main idea of Sojourner Truth I ain't a woman speech?
If I remember it correctly she is trying to show how hypocritical the women are at the women rights convention that she is at. The women wanted all people to have equal rights, men said no because women are inferior in their opinion. As a women, Sojourner Truth was also there to fight for women's rights. she gets up to speak, but the women then get mad at her and try to silence her because she is a BLACK woman and black people shouldn't have rights. it's ironic because the women are doing to Sojourner exactly what the men are doing to them. Men won't let women have rights, women get upset because it's unfair to not let someone have rights just because they are a different gender. But then women won't let sojourner have rights just because of her skin color. "Aren't I a woman too? shouldn't I be able to fight for woman's rights? I thought we were all on the same page here.." -basically Sojourner Truth

Is Sojourner Truth a democrat or republican?
I'm not sure the question is meaningful. Sojourner Truth lived at a time when women could not legally vote in the US, so it's not clear that she ever had an opportunity to officially join either party. (She did attempt to vote in the 1872 election, but was turned away.) That said, she was almost certainly Republican in her leanings, since that was the party of Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses Grant, both of whom she visited during their term as president.

true! But to really understand that answer, you must first define what truth is for you. Most people will agree that there is no such thing as an universal truth.
