Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me! And ain't I a woman?
I could work as much and eat as much as a man when I could get it and bear the lash as well! Sojourner Truth, "Ain't I A Woman?" This passage helps to establish Sojourner Truth's credibility by showing that she: A. hates having to work so hard for such a small sum of money. B. believes women are not able to work as hard as men. C. has struggled as both a slave and a woman. D. was often punished for bad behavior as a slave.
The answer is "C". She is talking about being equal with men and she can do as much as they can and that is a struggle because nobody is going to listen to her. I don't see any part that talks about a slave but that option is the most accurate.
In "The Tell-Tale Heart," the narrator claims to have killed the old man because he hated the appearance of the man's eye. However, his murderous actions are actually a reflection of his madness. The reasoning behind the narrator's crime undermines his argument that he is sane and proves his mental instability.
