Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sojourner Truth (c. 1797-1883) made legal history in 1828 becoming the first Black woman to win a legal victory against a white man to secure a family member's freedom. Truth's success in securing her son Peter's freedom shattered legal norms, challenged gender biases, and became a part of U.S. history.
