This week we are shining a light on one of the greatest figures in American history.
Born Araminta Rossin, she began her in bondage, later escaping to become a conductor on the Underground Railroad and one of the most important figures in the fight for abolition. So in this episode we are going to discuss her life, her work, and her legacy as I ask… who is Harriet Tubman?
