Q2. Harriet was risking her life because she was helping other slaves escape knowing that she was a fugitive slave herself. Whenever terminal lead a group of slaves to freedom she placed her self in great danger there was a bounty offered to her capture because she was a fugitive slave herself and she was breaking the law in slave states by helping other slaves escape.
