Sagot :

The exercise is about the poem written by Sojourner Truth. The poem is titled "Ain't I a Woman?"

What are the speaker's viewpoint and claim?

1) The speaker here seeks to exert the point of view that women having the right to vote is common sense.

2) The reasons provided for this claim is that:

  • Men are birthed by women
  • The first woman God made was strong enough to upturn things
  • women can work and eat as much as men do

3) one of the pieces of evidence she gives is her work on scarred arms.

4) her reasons and evidence are sufficient in that there are many things a woman can do that a man cannot do. For example, she stated that she bore 13 children, no man can without the aid of some kind of technology if at all do that.

5) One of the fallacies in her logic is that, because she is strong and can carry about her business, other women can.

6) Already mentioned, she states that some men say that a woman needs to be helped, therefore they are less capable of doing what men do. She uses herself as evidence of a woman who doesn't need help from men.

7) The speaker's response to counterclaims is clever but not sufficient.
