An Account of an Experience with Discrimination
By Sojourer Truth
A few weeks ago I was in company with my friend Josephine
S. Griffing, when the conductor of a streetcar refused to stop
his car for me, although [I was] closely following Josephine
and holding on to the iron rail. They dragged me a number of
yards before she succeeded in stopping them. She reported
the conductor to the president of the City Railway, who
dismissed him at once, and told me to take the number of the
car whenever I was mistreated by a conductor or driver.
![Page 14: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
On the 13th I had occasion to go for necessities for the patients in
the Freedmen's hospital where I have been doing and advising for
a number of months. I thought now I would get a ride without
trouble as I was in company with another friend, Laura S. Haviland
of Michigan. As I ascended the platform of the car, the conductor
pushed me, saying "Go back-get off here." I told him i was not
going off, then "I'll put you off" said he furiously, clenching my right
arm with both hands, using such violence that he seemed about to
succeed, when Mrs. Haviland told him he was not going to put me
off. "Does she belong to you?" said he in a hurried angry tone. She
replied, "She does not belong to me, but she belongs to humanity."
The number of the car was noted, and conductor dismissed at
once upon report to the president, who advised his arrest for
assault and battery as my shoulder was sprained by his effort to
put me off. Accordingly I had him arrested and the case tried
before Justice Thompson. My shoulder was very lame and swollen,
but is better. It is hard for the old slaveholding spirit to die. But die it
must......

Hook- a surprising or intriguing passage or
idea used to grab the reader’s attention at
the beginning of a work
![Page 17: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The lead (beginning or introduction)
establishes the direction your writing will
take. A good lead grabs your reader's
attention and refuses to let go. In other
words, it hooks the reader.
![Page 18: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Hooking a reader when you are writing an essay is
just as important as a movie trailer is to the success
of the movie.You want to give “a little bit” of the
content, but you really want them to “buy the
ticket.” This presentation will introduce you to
some types of introductions so that you can use
them as your own when you write.
![Page 19: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
You should accomplish 3 things with your introduction:
Get the reader’s attentionPresent your topic and purposeConnect with your audience
Let’s look at some examples THEN talk some more about AWESOME writing
![Page 20: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
It all started the night before my
birthday, January 19, 2014. I was with
my friends when I got a sudden phone
call from my mother.
No, this is not a good hook – it lists the
events in order (avoid grocery listing the
facts)
![Page 21: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
I remember sitting in school one day after a test when my
teacher said she would like to talk to me. As I walked over
to her desk I thought I was in trouble. Nervously, I asked
“Yes Mrs. Cook?” She looked at me and held up my test.
Yes, this is a good hook – it places the
main character in an interesting situation
and as a reader we want to know what will
happen.
![Page 22: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Baseball is my favorite sport. I love
baseball! My mom first put me in
baseball when I was 5 and I loved it.
No, this is not a good hook – it lacks a
connection with the main character and
it does not create a picture with the
setting.
![Page 23: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
![Page 24: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
AVOID meaningless questions that don’t ask the reader to think critically.
Examples of Meaningless Questions
“Do you hate fast food?”“Do you have a favorite season?”“Have you ever wondered why people believe
in school uniforms? Well, I’ll tell you.”
![Page 25: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Sensory detail- descriptive detail that appeals to
any of the senses – sight, hearing, touch, smell, or
taste
Showing language- words used to create pictures
in the mind of a reader, rather than words that
merely tell what happened
![Page 27: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
a. Hannah said, “No, I don’t want a brother! I want a sister!” My parents tried to soothe
her by showing her that baby brother was sucking his thumb in the picture. Hannah
had been a thumb sucker from way back and my parents thought she would get a kick
out of our brother sucking his thumb inside my mother’s stomach. However, she still
looked like she had been sucking on sour candy for the next two days. My sister can
be stubborn. I think she must've been born with her hand on her hip.
b. My parents took my sister and me to Gatlinburg Tennessee. We stopped at a Super 8
motel for a little bit. Then we got up, ate breakfast, and were back on the road. For
breakfast I had pancakes and sausage. When we got to Gatlinburg, we went and found
our condo.
![Page 28: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
It was the edge of a baked summer night when
my tired mom, brother, and I eased into an empty
parking space near our apartment.
My mom pointed out a small dark figure in the
grass. “Look, I think it's a cat!”
“What's it doing?” I asked. The head lights
shined into the cat's sparkling green eyes as we
watched her groom her tattered fur.
Here’s an Example
![Page 29: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“Please stay in the car while I see if the cat has a name
tag.” The cat didn't run away in fear, so it wasn't hard for
my mom to see that the cat was not lacking a collar.
My brother and I flapped like fish out of water as we looked
at the newly-found creature. The cat wasn't about to go
anywhere, so we took the liberty of bringing out a small
container of milk.
She lapped hungrily at the milk as we watched on. Her
hungry eyes thanked us as milk dripped down her chin
while she licked her chops.

The Second Rule of Writing
![Page 32: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Quotations – The Comma
When a quotation is introduced, the comma goes outside
the quotation marks.
The Gingerbread Man said, “You can’t catch me.”
To close a quotation, the comma goes inside.
“You can’t catch me,” said the Gingerbread Man.
![Page 33: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Quotations – ending marks
Provided they’re part of the quotation, question marks and
exclamation points always go inside.
The Gingerbread Man said, “You can’t catch me!”
Question marks and exclamation points go outside if they’re not part of
the quotation.
Did the Gingerbread Man really say, “You can’t catch me”?
![Page 34: Cr 206 ag hook writing and truth](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022020218/55a942551a28ab105d8b47b3/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Quotations – One Final Thing!
Always capitalize the first word of the person’s exact words.
Fox thought to himself, "That gingerbread man would
be good to eat.”

Write a partial autobiography, focusing on a specific
period of your life, such as elementary school, early
childhood, even infancy (though you may have to be
creative for that one).
