Episode 1131
This Wikipedia entry details the life of Harriet Tubman, an influential abolitionist and human rights activist who escaped slavery to become a primary conductor on the Underground Railroad. The text outlines her childhood trauma, her devout religious faith, and her dangerous missions to rescue roughly 70 enslaved people. During the American Civil War, she served the Union as a nurse, scout, and spy, notably becoming the first woman to lead a U.S. armed military raid. In her later years, Tubman settled in Auburn, New York, where she advocated for women's suffrage and established a home for the elderly. Today, she is honored as a national icon of freedom through numerous monuments, artistic portrayals, and a posthumous promotion to one-star general.
