The essay "Ain't I a Woman" is quite impressive. For me, it says that the writer is fed up of being a slave and being treated as a second class citizen in the society. She had many children and they were all sold off into slavery. As for me, I would have not been able to continue on after having one taken from me.
The objections which have been brought against a standing army, and they are many and weighty, and deserve to prevail, may also at last be brought against a standing government. (correct me if I'm wrong)
