[act-ma] 2/28 Harriet Tubman: I Can't Die But Once

[Charlie Welch]

        Thursday, Feb 28 - Harriet Tubman: I Can't Die But Once

Harriet Tubman followed General Butler's army as it marched through 
Maryland. It was, after all, her home country, and it was an opportunity 
to stimulate slaves to escape to the Union Army. Harriet Tubman, 
operating as a scout and spy of the Union Army, was possibly the first 
American woman to work on the battlefields of the Civil War. Told in the 
oral tradition, Gwendolyn Quezaire Presutti will present the life and 
times of Harriet Tubman in a 45 minute presentation. This program is 
ideal for adults and families with children ages 11 and above. This 
program is sponsored by the City-Wide Friends of the Boston Public 
Library in celebration of Black History Month. *Free*

Where: Grove Hall Branch Library, 41 Geneva Ave, Dorchester
