Harriet Tubman was very.... determined I should say. During the civil war the slavery didn't pause, stop, anything. Slavery was still going when the war was just beginning. During that time Harriet saved over 15,000 slaves! Now, coming from a 6th grader in Southeastern Kentucky that's what I learned about her. I may not have all of the details so you might wanna go to ask.com for more info. It will take you to here. But when it brings up all of the sites. Go to the one that is JUST about Harriet Tubman. That will give you a whole dang report! It works the best. TRUST ME! I did a report on her. That site is AWESOME!
Harriet Tubman was a leader of it because she escaped by it then wanted to save her family and friends so she risked her life over and over and saved some slaves and brought them to freedom. These people are often referred to as the conductors on the Underground Railroad.
Harriet Tubman was a brave and very strong woman. She traveled very long ways to get herself, her family, and as much slaves as she could to freedom. She risked her life nineteen times as a "conductor" on the Underground Railroad. As I recall, she escaped to Pennsylvania from Maryland. No one really knows how many miles she had to travel to get to freedom when she escaped.
Harriet Tubman was an African-American abolitionist, humanitarian, and Union spy during the American Civil War. After escaping from slavery, into which she was born, she made 13 missions to rescue more than 70 slaves using the network of antislavery activists and safe houses known as the Underground Railroad. She later helped John Brown recruit men for his raid on Harpers Ferry, and in the post-war era struggled for women's suffrage.
They created the Underground Railroad-- which was a trail from the South to the North, and if a slave was lucky, they could get all the way to Canada where they could not be captured again. Harriet Tubman was a major contributor for smuggling slaves to the North, even though every time she went back down to the South, she risked being re-captured herself.
