"What To The Slave Is The Fourth Of July?" And "Ar'n't I A Woman?": Compare/Contrast

Abstract: 5 pages in length. As two of the most outspoken and unforgettable figures in black history, Sojourner Truth and Frederick Douglass both sought to bring about cultural, social and gender change to an otherwise intolerant white society. Their literary efforts, forever bound and protected by time, have chronicled the struggles inherent to black Americans since the beginning of the slave trade; that their personal experiences mirror the horrors taught from schoolbooks all across the country make their respective appeals for racial equity that much more poignant. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
