Learn from Harriet.Around 120 years ago, a young woman freed herself from slavery. However, when Harriet Tubman crossed into the free lands of Pennsylvania, she knew her own freedom wasn’t enough — she was compelled to help others attain their freedom.For the next 11 years, she crossed back into the hell she had escaped over and over again.
