It irks my nerves when “Super Revolutionary,” Ankh/Hotel  types put down other black people for being “uneducated.” For not being “woke” enough or for having religious beliefs.

First off,  Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth were uneducated. Today, they would have been called ghetto, ratchet, hood rat, “brainwashed by the white man” and uneducated.

These women between the two of them, despite not being able to read or write, lead revolutions in the civil war, freed thousands of slaves, saved lives,  worked as a women's rights activist, were abolitionists,  and fought against a system that was never for them.

And they were religious.
