SOJOURNER TRUTH ON BLACK WOMEN FACING MORE THAN ONE OPPRESSION

[In 1867, when female suffrage was still very much being debated, Sojourner Truth said] 
“I feel that I have the right to have just as much as a man. There is a great stir about colored men getting their rights, but not a word about the colored women; and if colored men get their rights, and colored women not theirs, the colored men will be masters over the women, and it will be just as bad as it was before.
