@loveshutterbug, Black Royalty, shared the text and images below.
Back when my daughter, Charlotte Adventure, was about 3 years old, I did a photo series of my daughter portraying important Black [Women] through history.
For a toddler, she ATE THIS UP! Here she is as the great #SojournerTruth, #MadamCJWalker, and #RosaParks

My favorite quotes from Sojourner Truth's speech published June 12, 1851, in The Anti-Slavery Bugle:
*******
"But the women are coming up blessed be God and a few of the men are coming up with them."
"I am a woman's rights."
*******

Susan B. Anthony is the suffragist who gets the attention, but I most admire Dr. Alice Stokes Paul, Sojourner Truth, & Lucretia Coffin Mott. They have my gratitude when I vote. I encourage learning about these remarkable women; this post focuses on Alice Paul, who died in 1977 (when I was in high school!) Learn about her at these websites:

YOU MAY HISS AS MUCH AS YOU PLEASE.....
BUT WOMEN WILL GET THEIR RIGHTS ...

Die #Olympiade mit dieser Obsession, zu entscheiden, wer und wie eine Frau ist, ist ein guter Moment, an #SojournerTruth zu erinnern.
Gerade wenn es doch nicht das erste Mal war, dass das eine Frau betrifft, die nicht weiß ist.
"That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place!
And ain't I a woman?"
Sojourner Truth

@nobody Definitiv "All lives matter"-Vibes!
Fiel dir auf, dass unter den getöteten Menschen keine einzige weiße Frau ist?
Zur Intersektionalität möchte ich Dir die erste Person ans Herz legen, die das Konzept inhaltlich öffentlich mit "Ain't I a woman" angesprochen hat.
Und zu "Reduzierung" möchte ich die wunderbare Audre Lorde zitieren: "There is no thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives."

@CarveHerName A source for the words by #SojournerTruth
(spoken at the First Annual Meeting of the American Equal Rights
Association - May 9, 1867):> I feel that if I have to answer for the deeds done in my body just as
> much as a man, I have a right to have just as much as a man. There is
> a great stir about colored men getting their rights, but not a word
> about the colored women; and if colored men get their rights, and not
> colored women theirs, you see the colored men will be masters over the
> women, and it will be just as bad as it was before. -
@KarenWyld A tiny contribution... Let's all remember #SojournerTruth whose speech "Ain't I a woman" marked the first public awareness of intersectionality.
