Best Answer

She led people from the south to freedom in the north. She also was suppose to be at Harper's Ferry with John Brown but got sick. Later, in her life she wrote a book, gave speeches, had a agency to help people who moved from the rural areas to the city. This was mainly to help displaced Blacks. She was always looking for money and always broke since everything she earned went to help people.
