∙ 12y agoNo, it is not true. The Statue of Liberty was a gift from France, sculpted by Frederic Bartholdi, who modeled it after the Roman goddess of liberty; there are also some sources which say Bartholdi may have modeled it after his mother.
There was a claim made in 2007 that the original version of the statue was modeled after a black woman and meant to be a tribute to the freeing of the slaves, but there is no evidence to support this; and historians who have investigated this claim have concluded that it is false.
