HELP IM GONNA FAIL Read the excerpt from "Ain't I a Woman?" by Sojourner

Truth.
I could work as much and eat as much as a man when
I could get it-and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a
woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most
all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my
mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a
woman?
What is the speaker's claim?
O She is a mother.
O She was enslaved.
O Women are as capable as men.
O Women suffer more than men.

Answer:

I think that it it C

Step-by-step explanation:

i think its C because the author keeps repeating the sentence "aint I a woman?" and compares herself to a man saying she could get it and bear the lash as well and continues to say so i believe.
