2021 Celebration of Black History - Day 20
Today we celebrate Black History with the heroic Harriet Tubman
Harriet Tubman is one of the greatest freedom fighters to exist. Born a slave, Tubman committed to not only freeing herself, but she created a system that would revolutionize slavery and the people who benefited from it most, The Underground Railroad. She was known as “The Moses of her people,” because she guided them to freedom. Tubman was laid to rest with military honors. Her commitment to the advancement of freedom is highly respected and noted in history.
“If I could have convinced more slaves that they were slaves, I could have freed thousands more.” - Harriet Tubman.
