Answer:

Because she freed over 300 enslaved African Americans, including her own parents. This was qualified as brave.

Step-by-step explanation:

Harriet Tubman was born a slave. She escaped slavery and made a

promise to help others do the same. She made a total of 19 rescue trips back

down south. She never lost one of the 300 slaves she saved. She was skillful and brave. She even led her parents to freedom in 1857.

Answer:

Tubman decided to help the Union Army because she wanted freedom for all of the people who were forced into slavery, not just the few she could help on the Underground Railroad. And she convinced many other brave African Americans to join her as spies—even at the risk of being hanged if they were caught.
