A slave went to the store without permission and Harriet Followed and the owner cought up with him and told Harriet to help hold him and she refused and the slave was starting to run and the owner picked up a weight or rock and threw it at the slave, missed and hit Harriet in the head with it.
Harriet Tubman didn't lose any slaves due to her carrying a gun and would chose to shot them. "Freedom isn't bought with dust but bought with sacrifice" -Harriet Tubman. The slaves were scared of here and didn't bother to run away when she was sleeping because they were scared. "A runaway slave is a traitor and that traitor would be forced to help slave owners or either get killed."

Yes, both of Harriet Tubman(born Araminta Ross)'s parents, Harriet Greene and Benjamin Ross were born slaves.
No. Harriet Tubman and her father were both slaves, and neither was the others superior on the plantation which they worked at before Harriet ran away.
Harriet Tubman, born into slavery to enslaved parents, escaped slavery at around the age of thirty. She returned to aid her family and other slaves, and eventually completed thirteen rescues of many more (as many as three hundred) through the Underground Railroad; a network of anti-slavery activists and safe houses.
At the outbreak of The American Civil War, she worked as a cook and nurse, then later a scout/spy for the Union Army, and became the first woman to lead an armed expedition; she was instrumental in the rescue of several hundred slaves from South Carolina in the Combahee River Raid.
After the civil war, she fought for women's suffrage until she succumbed to age and illness, living out the rest of her days in the home for elderly African-Americans that she had once helped to found.
Her actions throughout her life, from the liberation of slaves to her battle for women's rights serve as an example and inspiration today.
Harriet escaped because she was put up with working all the time. She had to take care of a baby at the age of 7. Then one day she escaped and used the Underground Railroad to freedom. Look at www.nationalgeographic.com/railroad/. She was an amazing woman and if she was still alive I would love to meet her.
Harriet Tubman, helped the slaves escape. Without her, we would probably still have slaves, I do know that Martin Luther King Jr. did do things later and that Abraham Lincoln was also against slavery but without Harriet Tubmans method of the Underground Railroad, life would not be what it is today. She changed the world and thanks to her colored people are no longer seperated from whites.
Harriet Tubman had to escape slavery. Many of her siblings were sold away and she could have been, but she was injured. She had a big dent in her head because a weight was thrown at a slave who was trying to escape, but it hit her in the head instead. this made her weak for a very long time and pretty much unsellable. The injury gave her strange visions, that actually helped her sometimes when trying to escape. But she didn't let the injury stop her, she soon became strong again, as strong or even stronger than a man. After escaping herself, she went back many times and led hundreds of slaves to freedom. Once a slave wanted to go back after he already went halfway, but knowing his white owners would beat her location out of him if he went back, she pretended to have a gun and made him keep going. she was married but when she ran away and came back to the state later, she found her husband was remarried. Even though she remarried herself, later on, she kept the name Harriet Tubman.
Americans are known for many things including a diverse culture, a strong appreciation of rights such as freedom, being prosperous (not all cases), being very outspoken, etc.
Harriet Tubman proabably had special training for becoming a cook and nurse for the Civil War.
She died from pneumonia and old age in a nursing home in Auburn, NY. She was about 93 (having been a slave, her exact date of birth was never recorded).
Harriet Tubman carried a small pistol with her on her rescue missions, although mostly for protection from slave catchers, but also to encourage some weak-hearted runaways from turning back and risking the safety of the rest of the group. Tubman also carried a sharpshooter's rifle during the Civil War.
Harriet Tubman was born on the 29th of january 1820 and she died on march the 10th 1913.
She was a slave, and she did not eat well enough.. so she passed away.
NOONOONOO! she was injured because her master stuck her head with an iron pan and damaged her brain. So that resulted in siezeres and sleeping spell (p.s. look up the iron pan thing I'm not positive it was a pan)
harriet Tubman did not die as a child
I don't Know btshes
Yes. The Harriet Tubman was laid on April 19, 1944, and then launched on June 3, 1944. It was a liberty class vessel, later scrapped in 1972 as all vessels of that class were. The liberty class of vessels were cargo ships, build for and during World War II. Known for their faults, the design made the hull very brittle, and prone to cracks and breakages. More than two thousand, four hundred vessels survived the war. After the war, most were decomissioned and bought by private shipping companies for use as cargo vessels per their design. Only two known specimens remain, the Jeremiah O'Brien, largely in original condition, and the John W. Brown which has been heavily modified, and was used as a school ship for many years.
