On This Day | September 17, 1849
Harriet Tubman, at just 27 years old, made the brave decision to escape slavery in Maryland. Guided by faith and determination, she found freedom in Pennsylvania—but she didn’t stop there.
Tubman returned to the South again and again, leading dozens of enslaved people to freedom through the Underground Railroad. Her courage, strategy, and unshakable resolve earned her the name “Moses of her people.”
Today, we honor Harriet Tubman’s legacy as a freedom fighter, abolitionist, and humanitarian whose actions continue to inspire generations.
