My definition of a hero. || my definition of a hero is a person who had enough strength to overcome a rough time in their life, and to become famous for what they did. ||
 * || who is Harriet Tubman? || harriet tubman was a person who was born a slave in Dorchester County, Maryland. her birth name was araminta ross. She suffered for most of her life. when she was 13 she got a two pound weight thrown at her head for trying to help another slave from being hurt by a supervisor which caused her to suffer from black-outs for the rest of her life. ||
 * || what did she do to become a hero? || in 1849, she had had enough with her bein mistreated because of the color of her skin, so she set out to escape to freedom. she found freedom in philiadelphia pennslynvania. she got help from people on the underground railroad. in 1850, she returned to Maryland to help the other slaves to freedom. ||
 * || where there any problems that she ran into? || in this time, while tubman was trying to help the other slaves to freedom, there was a new law that was passed, "the fugitive slave act" which means it was a crime to help enslaved escape to freedom. this did not stop her. ||
 * || the next ten years. || over the next ten years, she took about 20 trips to the south and led as many as 300 slaves to freedom, each trip was carefully planned to make sure that everyone on the journey had arrived safely. ||
 * || the other side of the story || some one who might think that harriet tubman was a hero is someone who believed in slavery. they would have stop her by either trying to kill her or trying to arrest her for freeing enslaved people while there was a law. but tubman avoided this problem by sneaking around. by secretly helping the slaves. ||
 * 7 ||  ||   ||
 * || her legacy || tubmans legacy was, she left her rough times behind by escaping to freedom. she left being a slave in maryland. and shes living in pennslyvania. ||
 * 9 || her advice || her advice to everyone about the problem she had to deal with is, treat everbody equally. poor or rich. fat or thin. white or black. no ne deserves to be treated differently because they are different in a way. ||
 * 10 || conclusion || harriet tubman eventually died in 1913, but her bravery to do what she did still lives on. a lot of people respect her for that. slavery would still be around if she didnt free some of them and if abraham lincoln didnt start the revolt against slavery and pulled the north to be against slavery and the south to be with slavery and started the civil war. everyone should thank harriet tubman and abraham lincoln for stopping slavery. ||
