Harriet Tubman: UNDERGROUND Railroad



Here is my entry for Monday Artday. Harriet Tubman who was a monument to courage and determination that continues to stand out in American history. Born into slavery in Maryland, Harriet Tubman freed herself, and played a major role in freeing millions of slaves through the Underground Railroad. After the Civil War, she joined her family in Auburn, NY, where she founded the Harriet Tubman Home.
