Clive(The person's name was 'Truth'?)Sojourner Truth was a female abolitionist. Many Americans hadn't heard of her until she finally was more fully recognized about 20 years ago. I have a 6-year-old great-granddaughter with that name. She often goes by Jo-jo.

I'm about SICK of people ending any sentence with "as well", as if trying to make their statement important.
