Read the excerpt from “Harriet Tubman: A Life of Toil and Triumph.”
After Harriet journeyed to the safety of Philadelphia, she met with members of the Anti-Slavery Society. She wanted to learn more about the special railroad that had helped her become free, and then she wanted to help. Without taking any time to enjoy her newfound freedom, she signed on as a conductor. Soon she was headed back to Maryland to guide others safely north.
Then in 1850, the United States passed the Fugitive Slave Act. This forced citizens of the Northern states to return escaped enslaved persons to the South. Remarkably, Harriet did not become discouraged. Instead, she conducted her passengers all the way to Canada—a trip of an extra three hundred miles! In all, she made that trip nineteen times, freeing her family and three hundred additional enslaved persons in the process.
What inference can be made about Harriet Tubman’s character?
She was tireless in bringing others to freedom.
She felt entitled to freedom and an easy life.
She was too busy to enjoy her new freedom.
She worked as a conductor to free her family.
