Read the quotation from Abigail Adams. It is from a letter she wrote her husband, John Adams, as he helped draft the US Constitution.

I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favourable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands.

Based on "Ain't I a Woman?," how would Truth most likely feel about Adams's statement?
Truth would agree with Adams's sentiment that women deserve to be represented in the Constitution.
Obliged to you for hearing me, and now old Sojourner ain't got nothing more to say. In the second paragraph of "Ain't I a Woman?," how does Truth appeal to listeners' sense of logic?
She demonstrates that women are just as strong as men.
Well, children, where there is so much racket there must be something out of kilter.

The diction in "Ain't I a Woman?" is informal and relatable.  

In her speech, Sojourner Truth, highlights on the idea that women are equal to the men and so equality of work and pay should be given to them. Her speech was very approachable and convincing to the listeners. She gives her examples to prove that women are nowhere behind men. She has alone faced all the troubles and hardships which her life have given to her. She speaks about the issues of the civil rights which included slavery and women suffrage.
