African-American abolitionist and women’s rights advocate Sojourner Truth said, “I have plowed and planted and gathered into barns, and no man could head me—and ain’t I a woman? I have born’d five children and seen them most all sold off into slavery, and when I cried out with mother’s grief, none but Jesus heard—and ain’t I a woman?... Then that little man is back there, he say women can’t have as much rights as man, ’cause Christ warn’t a woman. Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with him!”
