Explanation

Sojourner Truth’s “Ain’t I a Woman?” addresses two major civil rights issues of her time: the abolition of slavery and women’s rights, including women’s suffrage. She argues that Black women deserve the same respect and rights as others. This makes “commentary on several civil rights issues, including slavery and women’s suffrage” the best description.
