Sojourner Truth: The first black woman to win a case against a white man Women Did That

    • History

In perhaps our most important episode to date, we take a brief break from our series on Anne Boleyn to break down the incredible life of abolitionist, Sojourner Truth. After escaping slavery in 1826, Sojourner dedicated her life to abolitionism, justice, and freedom for all. From becoming the first black woman to win a case against a white man in 1828, to giving the iconic "Ain't I a Woman?" speech, and even holding an audience with President Abraham Lincoln, Sojourner's life was dedicated to fighting for equal rights for all.
