HEROES

Harriet Tubman

Born a slave in 1820 on a plantation in Maryland. Given the nick name Minty, she was  taught Bible stories, gospel songs and spirituals by her deeply religious parents. During these times before the Civil War slaves were not allowed to gather not even for church. Times were hard on the plantation so the owners hired out their slaves.  Harriet was always sent back because the masters who hired her thought she was stupid or stubburn. At the age of 11 she had shed the nickname of Minty to Harriet which was her mothers name. At the age of 24 she married a free Nego named John Tubman, but remained a slave. Harriot worked the underground railroad to bring more that 300 slaves to freedom. In Maryland it her picture was posted everywhere with a $40,000 dollar reward, dead or alive. Here password was  "A friend with friends" to open the door to the runaway slaves seeking refuge. A conductor of the underground railroad, making a difference, doing what was right.
