In Sojourner Truth’s speech to the Women’s Convention in Akron, Ohio in 1851, she discusses both the abolition of slavery and women’s rights. During Truth’s life, enslaved people of African descent were denied basic human rights. At the same time, women were denied the right to vote or hold a political office.
