As a teenage slave, Harriet Tubman stood up to an overseer who
was trying to harm another slave. From that time forward, Tubman
above left fought against unfairness and for what she believed
was right. She helped hundreds of African Americans escape on the
Underground Railroad.
TIME For Kids Biographies help make a connection between the
lives of past heroes and the events of today. Harriet Tubman''s
courage and ideals have inspired generations of Americans to fight
for equal rights and to stand up for their convictions.
