Ain't I a Woman, particularly the last verse, continues to resonate, even after 164 years. We ARE equal; and no politician--no matter if his agenda is religious or secular--can change that.
monday quote:
And ain't I a woman?that little man in black there saya woman can't have as much rights as a mancause Christ wasn't a womanWhere did your Christ come from?From God and a woman!Man had nothing to do with him!If the first woman God ever madewas strong enough to turn the worldupside down, all alonetogether women ought to be able to turn itrightside up again.
(Sojourner Truth, abolitionist and women's rights activist, 1797-1883)
