Sojourner Truth

Sojourner Truth, born Isabella Baumfree, (c. 1797 – 1883) was an American abolitionist and activist for African-American civil rights, women's rights, and alcohol temperance. Truth was born into slavery in Swartekill, New York, but escaped with her infant daughter to freedom in 1826. After going to court to recover her son in 1828, she became the first black woman to win such a case against a white man. This cabinet card of Truth was produced in around 1864, and is now in the collection of the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

Sorted. Thanks for noticing. Now sure how I noticed "Eight-seven" (as it read when it first went up) and not this. Dpmuk (talk) 00:19, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
