| Transcript | N.O.W. NEWS October 1986 BAY AREA CHAPTER NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR WOMEN "That man over there, he says women need to he helped into carriages and lifted over ditches and to have the best everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, over mud puddles or gets me any best place. Ain't 1 a woman? Look at me. Look at my arm. I have plowed and 1 have planted. And 1 have gathered into barns and no man could beat me. And ain't 1 a woman? I could work as much and eat as much as any man-when 1 could get it-and bear the lash as well. And ain't 1 a woman? I have borne children and seen them sold into slavery, and when 1 cried out with a mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me. And ain't I a woman?.•• That little man in black here! He says women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause Christ wasn't a woman. Men had nothing to do with him. 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 ir right-side-up again. And now that they are asking to do it, the men better let 'em. Sojurner Truth, 1848 Attention: All you EVE's out their. Let's turn the %*>rtd upside down and vote in the upcoming elections.
