Hark, A Vagrant: S. Truth, Jenkins

buy this print!


So a while ago I was either watching a video on youtube or reading an article where someone was quoting Sojourner Truth, and I don't even remember what the thing was, but in the comments section someone had written "look up her picture, she was OLD" and then they said something mean about her looks. I thought, I mean, it's pretty amazing to accuse and dismiss someone born in 1797 for being old and not hot enough to listen to.




I wonder how many speeches ever made (outside of movies) have ever gotten anyone to do anything because I have never heard a speech irl that would even get me out of bed.
