The stories are of a young girl names Araminta Ross born a slave, suffered physical
and mental abuse from cruel owners. This young girl dreamed of being free.
She experiences a life threatening injury that left her with a disability that only strengthened her
DETERMINATION that someday she would be free, as she felt it was her God given right.
As a married woman, now called Harriet Tubman, she took the ACTIONS necessary
to follow this dream and emancipated herself.
A compassionate LEADER with much FAITH and LOVE for her family, she returns to the south, the l
and of slavery to RESCUE her family and up to 300 people.
Harriet tells about the Underground Railroad. A well-organized secret society of compassionate
people that SUPPORTED her and many others in their quest for freedom.
A demonstration of what people can do when they work together.
Harriet Tubman was a VETERAN of the Civil War. As a scout and a spy, she was one of the first women
in the US Army to serve behind enemy lines and to lead a raid that freed 800 people.
As a nurse, she worked in hospitals where people were suffering from injuries and contagious diseases.
Her compassion for others was unending. After the War, Harriet continued to care for others, and to
advocate for human, civil and women's rights.
