Harriet Tubman was born a slave on a plantation in Maryland. Her name then was Araminta Ross, and her mother, Harriet Greene, called her “Minty” for short. When she turned eleven years old, her first name was changed to her mother’s name. 

Harriet was never taught to read or write. She started working when she was just six years old. When she was a teenager, she suffered a brain injury after being struck by a slave overseer. For the rest of her life, Harriet suffered the effects of her injury. Even so, she was able to escape to freedom when she was about twenty-nine years old. She used the Underground Railroad to make her escape. It was a dangerous and difficult journey, but Harriet was able to reach freedom in the North. 

However, Harriet was not satisfied with just gaining her own freedom. She soon began returning to the South to lead her family members and other slaves to freedom. She became a conductor on the Underground Railroad. Over ten years, she made nineteen trips on the Underground Railroad, helping to free about 300 slaves. Even though there were large rewards offered for her capture, neither she nor any of her “passengers” were ever caught.
