Críticas:

"I wanted to tell you a little might about Woman's Rights, and so I come and said so. I'll be around agin sometime. I'm watching things, and I'll get up and tell you what time o' night it is."--Sojourner Truth, "Snakes and Geese" (September 7, 1853) "Cultivate the oratorical, do it diligently and with purpose, remembering that it is by the exercise of this weapon perhaps more than any other that America is to be made a free land, not in name only, but in deed and truth." --William Grant Allen, "Orators and Oratory" (June 22, 1852)

Reseña del editor:

Oratory has played a vital role in struggles for liberation and social reform throughout U.S. history. Containing more than 150 speeches, this volume represents the most extensive and diverse collection of African American oratory of the 18th and 19th centuries ever published.
