I just finished another great biography – this time on the life of Harriett Tubman. The biography is unique because it was written within her lifetime by one of her supporters, Sarah Bradford.
Though I checked out a physical copy at my local library, thanks to the University of North Carolina, you can read it online here.
I knew that Harriett Tubman was one of the most famous escaped slave conductors on the Underground Railroad. But the story of her life, bravery, selflessness and absolute dependence upon God blew me away.
For the 300+ individuals that she led to freedom, plus the thousands of others that she inspired, Harriett Tubman lived a life of immeasurable influence.
It’s one thing to talk (yell? rant?) about something you care about.
It’s another to do something about it.
