Today’s Black Brilliance info is about Harriet Tubman. Harriet was a slave in Maryland who became known as the “Moses” of her people and the “conductor” who led hundreds of enslaved Blacks to freedom in Canada along the Underground Railroad in the 1850s. When angry slave owners offered rewards for her capture, she continued her work despite great personal risk. Harriet Tubman became a leader in the Abolitionist movement.
