Interesting Info
- Sojourner Truth was the first Black woman to sue a white man and win—she fought for her son’s freedom in court which is why we fight so hard for our community!
- Sojourner Truth never learned to read or write, but gave powerful speeches across the US which is why we at STP make it our business to give everyone a voice!
- Sojourner Truth tried to vote in 1872, decades before women won the right to vote which is why we speak truth to power even when it seems impossible!
