Publisher's summary

Slave to brave emancipator, activist, and hero.

Imagine being born into the most broken of families. Imagine never meeting most of your siblings because they’ve all been sold away. Imagine being sold yourself to a master who doesn’t speak your language and beats you savagely. Picture enduring years of slavery, living at the mercy of people who treat you as property and then sell you off on a whim.

Do you believe that you could hold your head high through all of this and keep faith in your beliefs? How might you find your very own voice - loud and clear, dynamic and true - despite these forces of evil?

Such is the story of Isabella Baumfree, who later called herself Sojourner Truth as part of her divine mission. She took every hardship she faced and turned it into self-improvement. She met every ounce of racism, hate, and scorn and transformed it into compassion. She freed herself from slavery and spent the rest of her life traveling the country, fighting to make sure that no one else would suffer the same indignities ever again.

Explore the travels, times, and tribulations of Sojourner Truth today. An understanding of the past may forge a better future.

This woman was amazing and a real fighter!

I learned a great deal about Sojourner Truth. I don't know if I ever really knew her story but it is one that should be taught in schools. Her figh t for rights of both African American people and women of all colors showed she believed all people are equal and should have equal rights. She is an inspiration.
