In the 1840¹s and 1850¹s American abolitionist¹s were a small minority in every part of the country. Harriet Tubman was one of the women who joined the attack on slavery.

Harriet Tubman was a slave when she was a little girl. When she grew up she wanted to help the slaves and the little kids. When she became an adult she helped them and they would run away and escape.

Even before Harriet Tubman was born she had a powerful enemy. Her enemy wasn’t a person or even a country; it was the system known as slavery. It is known that at least two grandparents were captured by slave traders and brought to North America from the Slave Coast of Africa during the 18th century. Because slaves were not allowed to read and write, Tubman grew up illiterate. She left no letters or diaries that would later allow historians to piece together all the parts of her life story. But we do know that she was one of history’s great heroines. With courage and determination, she escaped from slavery herself and then led more than 300 slaves to safety and freedom.

I have been watching her for weeks, and today was the big day, the day I took her to become a part of my perfect family.

I also wanted her to be Lily because she was the most stunning woman I had ever seen with her chocolatey brown eyes and her short curvy body.

When Harriet was six years old, a typical day in her life would be that first, right when she would wake up, she would put on her tow-linen shirt, and go to work as a slave in the plantation. While she would work, Harriet would secretly sing the forbidden song, which was about Moses and the children of Israel, that her mother, Old Rit, taught her. While she was singing the song, she heard a few other slaves secretly singing it as well. Then, Harriet’s father, Ben, would inform Harriet about how to survive life outside the plantation by talking about the woods, which berries were safe to eat, and the many animals that lived there as well. While Ben would talk to Harriet, Harriet would feel moments of pride when Ben was consulted about the weather by an overseer. Ben would tell the overseer that the direction of the wind was coming from the north, by licking his forefinger and holding it up.

Her Father remarried one year later and in time had three more children. Her Father always wanted her to be a boy. When Harriet was only 13 years old, she tried to stop a person from being whipped and went between the two people. The white man hit her in the head with a shovel and she blacked out.

In 1844 she married John Tubman, who was a free black. In

I sat frozen, as I couldn’t escape reality. However, the truth managed to all because of something I’m unable to control Feeling like an infant who is drowning as the only thing that can save me is a buoy thrown by another man. For if he does not exist, I am someone who can’t speak language.
