Best Answer

If you are defining "saint" as a Catholic woman who was honored with this title by the Pope, and is believed to be worthy of receiving the prayers of believers, then no, Harriet Tubman was not a saint. The pope never gave her that title, nor do people pray to her. But if you are referring to "saint" as a word that describes a person of any religion who acts in an altruistic and compassionate way and improves the society as a result, then yes she was a saint. Many people of all faiths have been called "saints" because of how selflessly they acted, often putting their own health or safety at risk to fight for the rights of others -- Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King are two examples of that. And by that definition, you could certainly say that Harriet Tubman, a widely-admired abolitionist and civil rights leader, displayed saintly qualities.
