Harriet Tubman
Harriet Tubman was a brave woman, she managed to take eleven slaves to Canada, with no one noticing anything. She also did something that was surprising, she took the gun that she had with her to make a slave stay or to die, "We got to go free or die." She didn't allowed a slave to go back while they were traveling because someone might figured that he/she were returning from the running slaves and might have to answer questions. She traveled to differents places to stay like Thomas Garret's house in Wilmington, Delaware. She wanted to get to Canada to have a chance to feel what it would be like to be free. She painted pictures of what she thought Canada would be like, that shows she wanted to be free. In the couples of houses she stopped to get food and to get warm, I believe the persons that owned the houses agreed that they should be
The slaves didn't screamed at her or complained. They could been killed if they gave up and people would find out, they worked hard to make their dream come true. Mark once said in the story "I often want to kill Mr. I believe these two stories are alike with the word freedom because Harriet makes her dream come true like on the pictures she drew, and how Mark felt almost as a slave. the captain says the Mark is not leaving that the person that is leaving is himself. I think he notices that Mark was being mistreated and was being treated like a slave. Harriet is a woman who fought for her rights, and won. " He committed a crime which was that he striked him and beat him up. He decided to become a pilot and run away until he became one. I believe he thought that he cold not become a pilot if he stayed home. Harriet had promised them food, and shelter, when they got to the first stop in the farmhouse the man said they were a lot of slaves and that it was not safe, because the farmhouse had been searched a week ago before they arrived there, so they didn't had what she had promised them.
