Sojourner Truth was born a slave, had many of her children sold into slavery, and had to fight to get one son who was illegally sold back. She managed to escape slavery, but suffered much more injustice as a black person and as a woman living in the 1800s. As an activist who publicly fought against racism and sexism, she had to overcome a lot of push back and attempts to silence her.
