Sojourner Truth--Sojourner Truth was born a slave and eventually ran away to freedom after New York abolitionist slavery.

Sojourner Truth joined the abolitionist movement advocating for the end to slavery but also spoke for women's rights. "Ain't I a Woman" is her most famous speech delivered in Ohio at a women's rights convention.
