Why does Sojourner Truth refer to her audience as her children?

English
1 answer:
kobusy [5.1K]3 years ago
5 0
I think that Sojourner Truth used the word children because it is how she would explain things to her children. This word signifies that the following words she will be uttering are of dire importance. She connects to the audience by making them remember that they were once children and they had to listen to the wisdom of their elders, especially, their mothers. 

Sojourner's use of the word children emphasizes her being a woman and a mother. Someone who is worthy of being listened too as she imparts words of wisdom.

Write a letter to a relative abroad discrbing to him or her some happy event that has taken place in the family
Naily [24]

Dear Aunt.

I'm writing this letter to tell you about Grandma's 90th birthday. Do you believe that she has come this far in life? we are also silly about this event, as it is a blessing that we have it for so long in our lives.

The celebrations started early here and almost the whole family participated. Grandma is very proud of her age and it is a pity that you were unable to attend, as I believe she would have had as much fun as we did.

We stayed up late, including grandma who told many stories about her life. The food was delicious and the company very pleasant.

I hope to celebrate another grandma's birthday next year and I hope you will participate, as we miss you very much.

With love.

Milly Dean.
