Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Sojourner Truth
Siužetinės Linijos Tekstas
- ...for I am a man of god...
- Exactly! Where did your Christ come from? Where didyour Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with Him. If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upsidedown all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again!
- Well, I am a woman of god, so why don't I have the same rights as the men that stand on these podiums?
- That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain’t I a woman? I must rely on myself, so why must I rely on the white man for my rights?
- We ask for woman a voice in the government under which she lives; in the religion she is asked to believe; equality in social life, where she is the chief factor; a place in the trades and professions, where she may earn her bread, is because of her birthright to self-sovereignty; because, as an individual, she must rely on herself.
