advertisements—like books, movies, posters, and paintings—can act as sociocultural "texts" that are read and interpreted by consumers. in this case, advertising:

Advertisements are powerful sociocultural texts that are created with the intention of persuading consumers to purchase a particular product or service.

These texts often employ various persuasive techniques such as emotional appeals, celebrity endorsements, and product demonstrations to capture the attention and interest of consumers. Advertisements are not just about selling products; they also reflect and shape the values, beliefs, and attitudes of society. For example, advertisements targeting women often depict unrealistic beauty standards that contribute to the harmful effects of body shaming and low self-esteem. On the other hand, advertisements that promote diversity and inclusivity can have a positive impact on society by challenging stereotypes and promoting social equality. As sociocultural texts, advertisements are open to interpretation and can be analyzed through different lenses such as gender, race, and class.

My daddy hadn’t even bothered to tell me himself not to sit at his table. He had left that to my mama, and I resented not only him for it, but her too. “You sit down,” my mama said, “and I’ll fix your plate.” “You don’t have to fix me anything,” I said, pouting. “It’ll be the same food I’ve cooked for your daddy.” “I don't want it.” “Paul, you hafta eat.” “Not in this house,” I said, and left. “Paul-Edward!” she called after me. “Boy, don’t you go no farther’n them steps! You hear me?” I heard her, all right. I just didn’t admit I did.

Well, children, where there is so much racket there must be something out of kilter. I think that 'twixt the negroes of the South and the women at the North, all talking about rights, the white men will be in a fix pretty soon. But what's all this here talking about?
That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain't I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work as much and eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?
Then they talk about this thing in the head; what's this they call it? [member of audience whispers, "intellect"] That's it, honey. What's that got to do with women's rights or negroes' rights? If my cup won't hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, wouldn't you be mean not to let me have my little half measure full?
Then that little man in black there, he says women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause Christ wasn't a woman! Where did your Christ come from? Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with Him.
If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back , and get it right side up again! And now they is asking to do it, the men better let them.
Obliged to you for hearing me, and now old Sojourner ain't got nothing more to say.
