"The man over there says 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 puddles, or gives me the best place - and ain't I a woman? "Look at my arm! I have sloughed and planted and gathered into barns and no man could head me - and ain't I a woman? I could work as much and eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the lash as well! and ain't I a woman? "I have born thirteen children and seen most of 'em sold into slavery and when I cried out with my mother's grief none but Jesus heard me - and ain't I a woman?" Sojourner Truth 1851 [Drawn image of Sojourner truth with a very large arm] Ain't I a Woman? 25¢ A MIDWEST NEWSPAPER OF WOMEN'S LIBERATION Volume 1 No. 1 June 26,1970 PUBLISHED BY THE PUBLICATIONS COLLECTIVE, IOWA CITY WLF

"O homem que está lá diz que mulheres precisam de ajuda para entrar nas carruagens e serem levantadas sob as valas e para ter o melhor lugar em todo o lado. Nunca ninguém me ajuda a entrar nas carruagens ou andar sobre poças, ou deu-me o melhor lugar - e eu não sou uma mulher? "Olha para o meu braço! Eu tenho descamado e plantado e juntado em celeiros e nenhum homem podia me ouvir - e eu não sou uma mulher? Eu posso trabalhar tanto e comer tanto quanto um homem - quando consigo - e suportar o chicote também! e eu não sou uma mulher? "Eu fiz nascer treze crianças e vi muitas delas vendidas para a escravatura e quando eu chorei com a dor da minha mãe ninguém a não ser Jesus me ouviu - e eu não sou uma mulher? Sojourner Truth 1851 (Imagem de desenho de Sojourner Truth com um braço muito largo) Eu não sou uma Mulher? 25 ¢ Um Jornal do Centro-Oeste da Liberação das Mulheres Volume 1 No.1 Junho 26,1970 Publicado pela PUBLICATIONS COLLECTIVE, IOWA CITY WLF
