The Life Of Harriet Tubman

February 1 @ 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM

Harriet Tubman-$20 bill

Harriet Tubman

 

The life of Harriet Tubman is one of the most extraordinary tales of heroism, sacrifice, and courage you will ever hear. Many Americans know the name of Harriet Tubman as a conductor of the Underground Railroad. They remember that she led many enslaved people to freedom. But like Rosa Parks or Paul Revere, she’s remembered more as a symbolic figure than as a real-life person whose life was dramatic before and after her daring rescues behind enemy lines.

In this fast-moving and fascinating multimedia presentation, you will meet the woman behind the legend. The life of Harriet Tubman includes being a spy, a nurse, an advocate for women’s suffrage, and the distinction of being the first American woman ever to lead regular army troops into combat! I love this presentation, and I think you will as well!

THIS IS A FREE ZOOM PRESENTATION!
