"At a gathering of prominent clergymen and
abolitionists at the home of Harriet Beecher Stowe, author of Uncle Tom's Cabin, Stowe was informed that Sojourner Truth was downstairs and wanted to meet her.
'You's heerd o' me, I reckon?' the former slave asked Stowe when she came downstairs.
'Yes, I think I have. You go about lecturing, do you not?'
'Yes, honey, that's what I do. The Lord has made me a sign unto this nation, an' I go round a 'testifyin' an' showin' on 'em their sins agin my people.' Fascinated by Truth's stories and demeanor, Stowe called down several of the more well-known ministers at the party. When asked if she preached from the Bible, Truth said no, because she couldn't read.
'When I preaches,' she said, "I has just one text to preach from, an' I always preaches from this one. My text is, 'When I found Jesus.' '
'Well, you couldn't have found a better one,' said one of the ministers.
In fact, Truth preached on more themes than that--abolition and women's rights to name two--and became one of the most celebrated and controversial itinerants of her era."
