Tubman saved her own relatives. Just them.
Harriet was an incredibly brave woman. I hope she is very well remembered.
Republican? Where did she vote?
Is there any doubt that if "Republican" Tubman were around today, she'd be a Black Lives Matter activist? And apparently, according to Sobieski, we're supposed to admire her because she was "gun toting." Back in the 60's, Black Panthers were also "gun toting." Are we supposed to admire them too? Why not put Huey Newton on the $20 while we're at it? Idiots.
John Brown of Harpers Ferry fame said that Harriet Tubman was the bravest person he’d ever met. He called her “The General”. He asked her to join his rebellion organization, but fortunately she declined. Before she began her initial run for freedom, before returning south to start the “Underground Railroad”, escorting blacks north to freedom, she had one prayer to God: “As a human being, I am entitled to either freedom or death, and I am going to have one of them”. IMHO, That has a Patrick Henry sort of ring to it.
