Answer:

(D) It affirms the notion that religion can't be used as a basis for unequal treatment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sojourner Truth, or her original name Isabella Baumfree, was an anti-slavery and women's rights activist during and after the American Civil War. Her famous women's rights speech "Ain't I A Woman?" is now recognized as one of the most famous abolitionist and women's rights speeches in American history. In the given excerpt, she affirms the notion that religion cannot be used as a basis for unequal treatment of the sexes, nor do men have the right to say that 'women can't have as much rights a men (just) 'cause Christ wasn't a woman." ( Ain't I A Woman?)
