Best Answer

Harriet Tubman was called Moses because she led people to freedom and out of slavery in groups and using the Underground Railroad and some of the white people put up quilts to signify it's a safe home and they can stay there even if they're running away from slavery and she never got caught and after she escaped went back and back and back again!! She saved so many people however some people were ill and left her and others wanted to go on their own and got caught most of the time too!!
