Hey there,

The former slave turned abolitionist and Union spy was a “conductor” on the Underground Railroad, and she helped free hundreds of slaves during the 1850s. She continued to help black Americans long after the Civil War ended. Sopuch said that many of her students are in awe of Tubman and her many accomplishments.

Hope this helps!!

Harriet Tubman was an escaped slave who became a “conductor” on the Underground Railroad, leading slaves to freedom before the Civil War, all while carrying a bounty on her head. But she was also a nurse, a Union spy and a women's suffrage supporter.
