Most of us know Harriet Tubman as one of the most recognized figures from the era of the Underground
Railroad. After freeing herself from slavery, Tubman became a conductor risking her life guiding around
70 people to freedom. Tubman went on to serve as a nurse, scout, and spy for the Union
Army during the Civil War. After the Civil War, until her death in 1913, she lived a life committed to freedom and dignity for all people.
