Part 3 – Read the historical context below and answer the questions that follow to analyze Sojourner Truth’s diction and syntax.

Sojourner Truth was an African-American abolitionist and women’s rights activist. She was born into slavery in New York but escaped with her infant daughter in 1826. She delivered the speech “Ain’t I a Woman?” at the Ohio Women’s Rights Convention in 1851.

1. How would the following sentiment be different if Truth used the word “should” instead of “better”?

“If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again! And now they is asking to do it, the men
better let them.”

1. Truth uses periodic syntax and an allusion in the following quote: “If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again!” To whom does Truth refer? What is the purpose of the allusion? What is the effect of the periodic sentence?
2. Now it is your turn! Rewrite the following sentence using balanced syntax. “If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again!”
3. Discuss the effect of changing the sentence’s structure. Which structure is more effective? Explain.
