The Truth is Inspiring
As I have read through some of the posts from our last pod, I noticed that I was not the only person who seemed inspired and impressed with Sojourner Truth. Before this I knew a little bit about her, but not much. It was interesting to read about the things she had done and said that forever changed the world as we know it. I loved reading her speeches and enjoying her manner of speaking. She was great at making her points in an almost cocky manner, while somehow managing to not be disrespectful. I really enjoyed learning more about this part of history.

I too knew little about Sojourner before this also. Sad really I feel the same she was strong, courageous, and inspiring. I can not believe History class does not discuss her more. She is like a woman Martin Luther King in my eyes. She fought for what she believed in and for her children. She had a big hand in providing us and her grandchildren a better future.
