What were different strategies Truth and Douglass used to fight for social justice?

Answer 1

Sojourner Truth and Frederick Douglass are two well-known names associated with the abolitionist movement. They were both former enslaved people who became powerful figures for the movement as they traveled across the United States, speaking about the injustices of slavery, the importance of human rights, and equality for all people. They both used their skills as orators and writing, as well as joining organizations to champion the cause for social justice.

Truth was a champion of not only the abolitionist movement, but women's rights for all women. They would in a way clash of the voting rights issue, as Truth believed that it should extend to all people and Douglass believed that fighting for the right for Black men to vote was more significant than fighting for women's suffrage. In addition, Douglass became more radical in nature, believing that violence would be necessary to end slavery, but Truth, a religious woman, believed that that was not necessarily the route they should take.
