Harriet Tubman Day on March 10th is a day to honor Harriet Tubman, a brave woman who helped many enslaved people gain freedom through secret escape routes called the Underground Railroad. She was born a slave but escaped, and then risked her life to help others escape too. People remember her for her courage, kindness, and fighting for what is right. On this day, we celebrate her achievements and the importance of freedom and helping others. Harriet Tubman Day teaches us about bravery and standing up against unfairness.
