Unsinkable: Harriet Tubman

Happy Black History Month! Today we explore the life of Harriet Tubman, who every American school child learns a LITTLE about. Her life was much more complex and grittier than typical textbooks will lead one to believe; her work on the Underground Railroad is just the tip of our proverbial iceberg. During the Civil War, Tubman risked her life to scout and spy for the Union Army as well as worked tirelessly to provide social services for recently-freed slaves. Join me as we unpack the mythologies, bust them open as usual, and give thanks for those historical figures who have spoken loudly and acted with purpose.Here's Dorothy Wickendon's book: https://bookshop.org/a/80949/9781476760742Consider buying it via my Bookshop link above to support the pod.LOTL: Queer ConversationWe all crave Queer Conversations.
