History At Play Presents A WOMAN AIN'T I, A DEPICTION OF SOJOURNER TRUTH

A Woman Ain't I, A Depiction of Sojourner Truth, features living historian Kathryn Woods, in a one-woman performance memorializing one of the most significant figures in American History. In this special event, presented by History At PlayTM, LLC , join Sojourner near the end of her life, as she recalls her early days as a child, born a slave in New York and who, with the help of God, renamed herself Sojourner Truth to walk away from slavery. Sojourner's identity blossoms as an evangelist, abolitionist, and seeker for the rights of women. Kathryn Woods breathes life into Sojourner's own words and infuses the performance with spiritual music that Sojourner may have sung to reinvigorate the life of this inspiring spiritual leader.
