Rising Above Slavery
2019
Overview
Trice features abolitionist Harriet Tubman. Today, Tubman is remembered as a hero for leading others to freedom. Tubman was one of many enslaved people who never learned how to read or write. Others wrote down much of her story, but parts have been lost. No one knows exactly how she escaped. She went back to Maryland and led a total of about 70 people to freedom. She told others how to escape, and about 60 of them succeeded. Tubman worked for freedom in other ways too. By 1861, new laws that limited slavery helped lead to the American Civil War between many slaveholding states (the Confederacy) and mostly free states (the Union).
