"Amazing that this woman born into slavery had the sheer guts to stand up and take on the white establishment and take her case to the courts. Amazing that this woman illiterate was able to challenge and move people by her speaking skills."
"I enjoyed learning about Sojourner Truth's life, but as she did not read or write herself, I didn't really trust the version I was getting. The book certainly gave me an appreciation for this remarkable woman. The second part of the book, which contained writings about her and others' accounts of her was slower going for me, and more of scholarly interest."
