The Narrative of Sojourner Truth

By: Sojourner Truth

Sojourner Truth, one of the most revered figures in American history, explains her road to liberation, spiritual enlightenment and the development of her feminist values. It’s a critical view of her enduring commitment to freedom and equality. In The Narrative of Sojourner Truth, the author delivers an honest look at her eventful life. Starting in New York, where she born to enslaved parents, Sojourner eventually escaped with her daughter in tow. Later, she became the first black woman to sue a white slaveowner for custody of her own child. She won the case, setting a precedent that many African Americans would follow. This narrative also includes her work as a preacher, where she focused on spreading the word of God. Truth became a charismatic orator, seeking liberation and gender equality. The Narrative of Sojourner Truth is a harrowing yet inspiring tale of an American hero. It explores how a formerly enslaved woman defied the odds to become a powerful beacon of hope. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Narrative of Sojourner Truth is both modern and readable.

Narrative of Sojourner Truth

By: Sojourner Truth

Narrative of Sojourner Truth is one of the most important documents of slavery ever written, as well as being a partial autobiography of the woman who became a pioneer in the struggles for racial and sexual equality. With an eloquence that resonates more than a century after its original publication in 1850, the narrative bears witness to Sojourner Truth's thirty years of bondage in upstate New York and to the mystical revelations that turned her into a passionate and indefatigable abolitionist. In this new edition, which has been edited and extensively annotated by the distinguished scholar and biographer of Sojourner Truth, Margaret Washington, Truth's testimony takes on added dimensions: as a lens into the little-known world of northern slavery; as a chronicle of spiritual conversion; and as an inspiring account of a black woman striving for personal and political empowerment.

Honoring Truth

The Sojourner Statue Story

By: Sojourner Truth Statue Committee (Northampton, Mass.)

This book has been written to tell the story of the Sojourner Truth Statue Committee for the commemoration of the Tenth Anniversary of the Sojourner Truth Statue completed and dedicated in Northampton on October 6, 2002. The title â€œHonoring Truth: The Sojourner Statue Storyâ€ can be understood in different ways. Honoring Truth was the primary goal of the Sojourner Truth Statue Committee. We wanted to honor this amazing woman who was born into slavery in Hurley, New York around 1797, who at an early age was separated from her mother and father and sold again and again until purchased by two Quakers who set her free. In 1844 Truth came to Northampton to live here in a cooperative utopian community called the Northampton Association for Education and Industry where she met some of the major abolitionists and reformers in our country: Samuel Hill, George Benson, William Lloyd Garrison, Frederick Douglass, and David Ruggles. It was here that she was a visible community figure for more than a decade and here that she first came to understand the relation between fighting slavery and fighting for women's rights and became an early pioneer of both movements in America. For all these reasons we wanted a statue to her, that all of us and our children and children's children might know who she was, and that she was here.
