A Monumental Biography Of One Of The Most Important Black Women Of The Nineteenth Century.Sojourner Truth: Exslave And Fiery Abolitionist, Figure Of Imposing Physique, Riveting Preacher And Spellbinding Singer Who Dazzled Listeners With Her Wit And Originality. Straighttalking And Unsentimental, Truth Became A National Symbol For Strong Black Womenindeed, For All Strong Women. Like Harriet Tubman And Frederick Douglass, She Is Regarded As A Radical Of Immense And Enduring Influence; Yet, Unlike Them, What Is Remembered Of Her Consists More Of Myth Than Of Personality.Now, In A Masterful Blend Of Scholarship And Sympathetic Understanding, Eminent Black Historian Nell Irvin Painter Goes Beyond The Myths, Words, And Photographs To Uncover The Life Of A Complex Woman Who Was Born Into Slavery And Died A Legend. Inspired By Religion, Truth Transformed Herself From A Domestic Servant Named Isabella Into An Itinerant Pentecostal Preacher; Her Words Of Empowerment Have Inspired Black Women And Poor People The World Over To This Day. As An Abolitionist And A Feminist, Truth Defied The Notion That Slaves Were Male And Women Were White, Expounding A Fact That Still Bears Repeating: Among Blacks There Are Women; Among Women, There Are Blacks.No One Who Heard Her Speak Ever Forgot Sojourner Truth, The Power And Pathos Of Her Voice, And The Intelligence Of Her Message. No One Who Reads Painter'S Groundbreaking Biography Will Forget This Landmark Figure And The Story Of Her Courageous Life. Photographs
