"Aint I a woman?"
These poem is writen by Sojourner Truth.The main purpose of "Aint I a woman" was that man and women to be treated equal and to have the same rights.Even she is a women she argued that was expected to do the same things as man.This poem talks about reality that women have gone through and ecperienced the same thing man have.Women in their modern day society were treated with an unequal level of respect compared to males.She is trying to tell the reader that white women get more respect that black women do,even though they are both just women.She is also saying that man say woman need to be treated with respect but she doesnt get any herself just because she is a black woman.Truth also repeat the rhetorical question "Aint I a woman?",this happens because she belief in her own deserving right to equality.She establishes a sense of identity as a victim of discrimination by describing how she faces prejudices as a black person.
