Harriet Tubman was an escaped enslaved woman who became a “conductor” on the Underground Railroad, leading enslaved people to freedom before the Civil War, all while carrying a bounty on her head.

Tubman is one of the most recognized icons in American history and her legacy has inspired countless people from every race and background.
