They Changed Their Names and Changed Humanity
Sojourner Truth and Harriet Tubman
From Enslavement to the Foundations of Women’s Suffrage
Trace Isabella Baumfree’s journey to becoming Sojourner Truth and Araminta Ross’s journey to becoming Harriet Tubman. Examine self emancipation, chosen names, abolition, public leadership, and women’s voting rights.
Connect Truth’s court action for her son Peter and her advocacy in 1851 and 1867 with Tubman’s rescue work and later suffrage organizing. Distinguish the legal change of 1920 from the voting barriers that remained for many Black women.
