Sojourner Truth Comparison

Now that I have read both writings, they are very different from one another. The biggerst difference was Sojourner's speech, as in the way she talked. In the 50 Essays book, her speech was so much better where the reader could clearly understand what she was saying. The derivative version of the speech took away from it's authenticity. I believe the original version loses it's appeal to pathos. A Caucasian audience may have thought Truth was another ignorant black woman who didn't know what she was talking about. Even though one probably didn't understand a word that was written, the speech still conveyed the same message. That is was Truth was trying to do, get her point across.
