Both used knowledge to fight

Explanation:

Because Fredrick Douglass was taught to read and write he preached out against racism and became the voice for antislavery. His autobiographies are the most powerful pieces of antislavery literature. Douglass's speaking tours rallied many against the cold grips of slavery. Sojourner Truth was the first black woman to win against a white man in court. She sued on the fact that her son was illegally sold into slavery in Alabama. Her actions inspired former slaves to use their rights. Truth traveled the land as an orator with a powerful and religious testimony to racism's injustice.
