I haven't read the writing or speech, "ain't I a woman" but from background knowledge, I know that rhetoric and rhetorical devices are used to persuade the audience of something.
As I don't know what the speech is about, I couldn't tell you what makes it effective but your answer is going to most likely be a type of rhetorical device.
Ask yourself...
What does the speech use more of?
- Alliteration
- Hyperbole
- Metaphors
- Similes
Those are some examples of rhetorical devices. I know I haven't read the speech but I hope I was at least some help :) Let me know if you have anymore questions.

The topic that Ivan Ilyich is thinking about here is his approaching death. He is in pain, but he is trying to occupy himself with work so as not to think about the pain he is feeling. This pain leads him to think that he isn't going to live for a long time, and that his death is imminent, and closer than he thought. He is not ready to die, which is why he is scared and wants to forget about the fact that this is going to happen, whether he likes it or not.
