ABOUT WHO WAS HARRIET TUBMAN?
Born a slave in Maryland, Harriet Tubman knew first-hand what it meant to be someone’s property. It was from other field hands that she first heard about the Underground Railroad which she travelled by herself north to Philadelphia. Throughout her long life (she died at the age of ninety-two) and long after the Civil War brought an end to slavery, this amazing woman was proof of what just one person can do.
