> "Well, children, where there's so much racket, there must be  
> something out of kilter." So begins Sojourner Truth's historic Ain't  
> I a Woman speech delivered right here in Akron, OH in 1851; over a  
> century later these controversial words continue to reverberate  
> through society. A Woman Called Truth chronicles the life of this  
> striking woman from the day she is ripped away from her family,  
> through her struggle for freedom, to her emergence as a popular and  
> respected figure fighting for abolition and women's rights. A Woman  
> Called Truth combines Sojourner's actual words with authentic  
> spirituals. It has been honored by the National Endowment for the  
> Arts, the IUPUI Children's Theatre Symposium, and the American  
> Alliance for Theatre and Education.
