On November 11, 1918, an agreement ended the fighting of World War I. The agreement was called an "armistice." The world hoped t

hat World War I was the war that would end all wars, so November 11 soon became known as "Armistice Day." On that day, many nations remembered their soldiers who fought in World War I.
Sadly, World War II began less than 20 years after, and even that wasn't the end of war. So in 1954, America's Armistice Day was renamed "Veterans Day." This was done to appoint November 11 a holiday to remember all of the brave soldiers who help to preserve freedom for Americans and people all over the world.

Every year, Veteran’s Day is observed as a U.S. holiday on November 11. On this day, towns across America honor veterans with parades and ceremonies to thank them for their service.

Which MOST ACCURATELY identifies the relationship between Armistice Day and Veteran's Day?
A) Armistice Day occurs earlier in the year than Veteran's Day.
B) Veteran's Day occurs earlier in the year than Veteran's Day.
C) Both involve honoring veterans. Veteran's Day replaced Armistice Day after World War II.
D) Both involve honoring veterans. Armistice Day replaced Veteran's Day after World War I.

The Set-Up

Slavery existed and women didn't have the vote in the first half of the 1800s. The people who weren't complete dirtbags wanted to change that…and had conventions to build up followers.

The Text

Truth begins her speech by pointing out that women and Black men gathering together should strike terror in the hearts of men attached to the status quo. (So you know this is going to be good.)

The status quo is that women need to be protected, and she describes all the special treatment that she never receives. Yeah; both of these are messed up. Women aren't fragile things that need to be treated like weird glass-blown angels…Sojourner Truth proves this by being strong.

…but she also proves that Black women are treated absolutely horrifically. She gets worked like a man (and beaten like a man) and so is considered less of a woman and less of human being.

Then she brings up the complete lack of logic present in inequality. She—being Black and a woman in the 1800s—is allowed less than a white man. But white dudes are getting snippy because she's asking for just a little more in the way of rights. Why are these guys getting miffed, exactly? She's not asking for them to have fewer rights than they already have; she's just asking for more than what she has.

Some of these dudes argue that women can achieve less because—check out this skewed logic—Jesus was male. Truth states that this is ridiculous. After all, God depended on Mary to bring Jesus to the world.

And speaking of Biblical women achieving Big Deal things: Eve managed to turn her world upside down with just one bite of an apple. So a statement that women can't get things done is insane: with the combined forces of determined women, there can be change again. Eventually, men will bow before the force of women's power.

Now that's how you end a speech.

 

TL;DR

A Black woman stood up and said, "Hey, I'm human, too. And I deserve just as many rights as Black men and white women."

And then the sound of her dropping the mic echoed through history.
