what is Sojouners Truth's weaknesses

Well i am not sure if she really was a nurse! On google images it shows her as a nurse so i really do not know if she was a nurse! Sorry!

Ain't I A Woman?

ask mami

no

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.

Sojourner Truth went to court and successfully sued for her son's custody in 1828 under the New York Anti-Slavery Law. She argued that her son, Peter, was being kept in servitude illegally, as he should have been freed after a certain age in accordance with state law.

Well first when she was with one of her owners they would beat her, and at one point one of her owner's named John made her a promise saying that she would be free if she worked hard, well she did. Then when she told him she had worked hard for him, he broke the promise. So that night she left with her son.

She is an independent woman that wouldn't back down for women's rights and slavery! :)

no harriet tubman did. Im pretty sure that is right we just learned that in social studies!:)

Sojourner Truth was an African American abolitionist and women's rights activist born in 1797. She is best known for her powerful speeches, particularly her famous "Ain't I a Woman?" speech delivered in 1851, which addressed both racial and gender inequalities. Truth's significance lies in her relentless advocacy for the rights of enslaved people and women, making her a key figure in both the abolitionist and early feminist movements in the United States. Her life and work continue to inspire social justice efforts today.

Turtle disease.

after the death of her child ...which she never got over it...went to help slaves escape...was a speaker in god.

I want to say a few words about this matter. I am a woman's rights. I have as much muscle as any man, and can do as much work as any man. I have plowed and reaped and husked and chopped and mowed, and can any man do more than that? I have heard much about the sexes being equal. I can carry as much as any man, and can eat as much too, if I can get it. I am as strong as any man that is now. As for intellect, all I can say is, if a woman have a pint, and a man a quart -- why can't she have her little pint full? You need not be afraid to give us our rights for fear we will take too much, -- for we can't take more than our pint'll hold. The poor men seems to be all in confusion, and don't know what to do. Why children, if you have woman's rights, give it to her and you will feel better. You will have your own rights, and they won't be so much trouble. I can't read, but I can hear. I have heard the bible and have learned that Eve caused man to sin. Well, if woman upset the world, do give her a chance to set it right side up again. The Lady has spoken about Jesus, how he never spurned woman from him, and she was right. When Lazarus died, Mary and Martha came to him with faith and love and besought him to raise their brother. And Jesus wept and Lazarus came forth. And how came Jesus into the world? Through God who created him and the woman who bore him. Man, where was your part? But the women are coming up blessed be God and a few of the men are coming up with them. But man is in a tight place, the poor slave is on him, woman is coming on him, he is surely between a hawk and a buzzard. - From ON WOMEN'S RIGHTS (The Ain't I A Woman Speech), bySojourner Truth, delivered May 1851 at the Women's Rights Convention in Akron, Ohio.

She bettered the life for many African Americans.

Sojourner Truth began her fight against slavery in the mid-19th century, particularly gaining prominence after the 1851 Women’s Rights Convention in Akron, Ohio, where she delivered her famous "Ain't I a Woman?" speech. Born into slavery in 1797, she escaped in 1826 and spent the following decades advocating for abolition and women's rights. Her activism continued until her death in 1883, making her a key figure in both the abolitionist and women's rights movements.

Sojourner Truth described her life as an African American woman by highlighting her experiences as a former slave, her advocacy for women's rights, and her emphasis on the importance of speaking the truth. She spoke out against oppression and discrimination, working to promote equality and justice for all.
