Harriet Tubman Blog 3

      What I learned from the book “Harriet Tubman” is that it wasn’t wasn’t for black people in the south including harriet tubman, she had to work hard and along with her family she had to sometimes stand u for them for something they didn’t do wrong. It was extraordinary to read of all things she had to go through and how she had to struggle with it.But when I keep reading the book I loved that she escape running away from her masters so she didn’t have to be a slave again, that was exciting to read that part of the story for a moment it felt like I was running with her side by side as she had to hide along the way to go all the way to the north to get out of the south. Harriet Tubman to mee is a amazing black woman because of what she did to be free in the world but in her eyes she didn’t want to be free all alone so of course she went back for each member of her family that way they can all be together.
Sometimes, I like thinking of myself as harriet tubman but of course I’m not a slave and I don’t live in the south but in my head I think me and her are close friends in real life if she was still alive today and going on until one of us dies. As a young black woman I want to learn from Harriet Tubman so she can teach me how to make it through life and show me the ways to make it easier, so that way I can be just like her in my own little world and wouldn’t have to deal with people who are cruel  because that is what harriet tubman had to go through cruel masters who whipped her and her family. She couldn’t do anything to fight back all she could do is either cry or go back to work.
Harriet Tubman is a great figure in my life because she shows me through her eyes that everything will be okay in your life all you have to do it is just keep moving forward in life and don’t look back at the negative things, you have to look at look the positive things oon your life to make yourself.
