People referred to Harriet Tubman as "Moses" because of her role in leading enslaved people to freedom through the Underground Railroad, paralleling the biblical figure Moses who led the Israelites out of Egypt. Tubman's courage and determination in guiding others to safety earned her this nickname, symbolizing her as a spiritual leader and liberator. Just as Moses faced immense challenges, Tubman risked her life multiple times to rescue others, making her an iconic figure in the fight against slavery.
