Question

I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favourable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Based on "Ain't I a Woman?," how would Truth most likely feel about Adams’s statement?

Answer 1

Answer:

Truth will agree with Adam's sentiment that women should also be given representation in the Constitution.

Explanation:

The lines "I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands" are from the letter sent by Abigail Adams to her husband John Adams. John Adams along with other members of the Continental Congress were drafting the Constitution at that time. Abigail then urged them to consider the rights of the women in their drafting, at the time when America was planning her independence from Britain.

In the same vein, Sojourner Truth's speech "Ain't I A Woman?" also highlights the rights of women and their equality to the men. She emphasizes the need for them to be granted equal rights to the men in all respects, actually stating that they deserve it. So, it is only natural that she will agree with Mrs. Adams feminist view of women's equality to men.
