She was a threat to the white male standard of the time, and she was very confident, and proud of her condition of being black and female. In some way religion and the words of God were put at stake because she was black and a woman and saffirmed that God spoke to her.

Truth's experiences as a black woman guided her struggle against racism and sexism in post-abolition america. From fighting to reunite with her son and  having her voice heard to participating in the Civil War and meeting Abraham Lincoln, Truth's life trajectory is an history lesson on how racism shapes the experiences of racialized groups.  Fortunately, her voice, her life and her truth were not erased, even though until today black women are constantly silenced and relegated to marginalization.]]> 2020-07-02 00:06:58 UTC https://padlet.com/marciavilaca/by1opn0pwdndjno9/wish/645459328 joaopereira71 https://padlet.com/marciavilaca/by1opn0pwdndjno9/wish/645459691 She challenged many characteristics of society that were very strong at the time, such as racism (which was even stronger than given how recently slavery had been abolished) and sexism.

Many tried to silence her for her radical speech to that time, but she managed to succeded due to her faith in God. ]]> 2020-07-02 00:12:23 UTC https://padlet.com/marciavilaca/by1opn0pwdndjno9/wish/645462136 janainaabud https://padlet.com/marciavilaca/by1opn0pwdndjno9/wish/645462492 As an freed slave, she spoke for abolition and woman's rights. She faced violence from christian white people. Her claims are still controversial until today. She had the courage to expose herself speaking of God, as black woman. Many people at that time would find that black people were not loved by God.]]> 2020-07-02 00:13:08 UTC https://padlet.com/marciavilaca/by1opn0pwdndjno9/wish/645462492
