Read and compare the excerpts from the two accounts of Sojourner Truth: Speech to the Ohio Women’s Conference to answer the follow-up questions. From account by Frances Dana Gage, Anti-Slavery Standard:

Then they talk about this thing in the head; what's this they call it? [Member of audience

whispers, "intellect."] That's it, honey. What's that got to do with women's rights or negroes'

rights? If my cup won't hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, wouldn't you be mean not to let me have my little half measure full?

From account by Marius Robinson, Anti-Slavery Bugle:

As for intellect, all I can say is, if a woman have a pint, and a man a quart—why can't she

have her little pint full? You need not be afraid to give us our rights for fear we will take too much—for we can't take more than our pint'll hold.
