Sojourner Truth, born into slavery in the 18th century, embarked on a path of advocacy and activism for civil rights and women's suffrage. She became a powerful voice in the abolitionist movement, delivering powerful speeches highlighting the experiences of African Americans and women. Her ability to speak publicly and fight for social justice was a feat that most women of her time were not able to achieve.
Sojourner Truht was influenced by the treatment of slaves and women. Being a slave herself, some of her influences could have been some of her owners:
Charles Ardinburgh and his father
John Neely
Martinus Shryver
John Dumont
And of course her parents stood behind her opinions. Robert, her love, could have encouraged her, as he was beaten to death by his owner.
Sojourner Truth was famous for preaching The Bible and singing.
Sojourner Truth became famous because she freed slaves.
