Description
Harriet Tubman
Inspiration lies within.
Discover the conductor of the Underground Railroad today.
Born into sickness and slavery, Harriet Tubman scarcely survived her childhood. Brutally beaten while laboring in the swamp lands of Maryland, she was left with hellish memories and permanent neural damage. Despite it all, she did live on...to claim a place in history’s annals, for Tubman wasn’t content to be free while others remained in shackles.
Guided by compassion and unwavering faith, she emancipated herself and led hundreds of others to refuge. Along the way, Ms. Tubman experienced heartbreak and poverty at every turn. Mortal danger was ceaseless. In wartime, she rallied for women’s rights; in times of peace, for brothers and sisters still deprived of their liberty.
Yet, Tubman’s true contribution to mankind was — and is — her legacy. Having entered the immortal pantheon of American heroes, she’s inspired generations to stand up in the face of prejudice and tyranny. She came from nothing but managed to give us the very greatest gift of all: conviction in ourselves.
What listeners are saying:
“Well written and immensely important to read, this excellent examination of the life and legacy of Harriet Tubman is a book that should be read by everyone – a source of learning and inspiration for all.”
“How I would have loved to have sat with [Harriet Tubman] and felt her kindness.”
“This is a very readable, introductory overview particularly well-suited for students; those older adults who may have never formally learned about Harriet Tubman during their public school years will also find it informative.”
“By writing about Tubman’s character and fiery power, Ramos inspires us to reach higher in our own American and human dreams.”
The trauma and triumph of Harriet Tubman is history that can’t be missed. Listen on. You may just find the strength to build a brighter future.
