Why we don’t have a Harriet Tubman day ?
🤷🏾♀️😟
🚶🏾♀️🚪🚶🏾♀️
She was suppose to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20.00 bill. But thanks to Trump, that won't be happening.
@@hansombrother1 There's a movie being made about her but it's not getting positive reviews from black ppl because of the fact that they have a foreign born actress of Nigerian origin playing her and that doesn't set well with black Americans.
We should & I saw the movie Harriet last night and it was very GOOD!
Dwight Love - As a member of ADOS (American Descendants of Slaves), I can tell you that is not the only reason but it is a BIG and important one. Other reasons include this foreign actress has made many disparaging comments about American Blacks. She should not play us.
I CAN NOT BEGIN TO IMAGINE THIS WOMAN'S MINDSET WHILE SHE WAS FREEING THOSE SLAVES. JESUS WAS WITH MS. MOSES.
Amen!
You can't imagine it cause over half of it is not true. Did she do things ? Yes but not near as much as they say she did.
@@aprilwest1883 Was there a point to the nonsense you sent me?
Yes was God bless her ml
Exactly! Her memory deserves to be respected and honored
I am grateful for our forefathers/mothers for their courage, faith, and blood shed.
She's a fictional character created by hollywood all events wasn't real, its all smoke and mirrors, an illusion to manipulate the mind in order the indoctrinate it with fairytales, And here we are in 2019 still got you falling for the okie doke/a dumb donkey whose still falling for the banana in the tailpipe..The neck, hands and feet were never ever shackled with chains only the mind, its a mental thing so free it in order the see what society can't allow you the know
@ruth bateau What ppl told you about this fairytale?
@ruth bateau Who were these ppl and are you talking about the public school system?
@ruth bateau Many things have photos but what about a voice recording or video or both the back the evidence?
@ruth bateau Do proper research on when the tape recorder was created and when hollywood movies started cause when you have these things makes it very easy to back the story of the person who told it cause only a fool would accept what has been told, taught and given to em without any evidence.
What an incredible impact this courageous woman had on so many lives. 💪🏽 Harriet Tubman is the definition of HERO.
Amen! SO true!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yes she was wonderful. Only she can see the freedom today.
Powerful woman
Amen!!!
@@sharenahartley649 The wrong woman Cynthia Ervio is portraying this great heroine.
Thank you Harriet. You need to be on the $20 bill.
Deservedly ❤
no the 1$ bill since more ppl have it
...or a monument in her honour.
Why does she need to be given money she was doing what she had to do any strong human would have done that it is our responsibility not a job
Haha true
imagine risking your lives that many times
Kensey Maluleke I would go mad
Exactly in those TIMES
I can't even begin to fathom that level of determination and bravery. She got all of her family out, including her parents, and so many more. Absolutely extraordinary.
God helped her, clearly.
Imagine if people had that much courage now...
Instead they riot and loot thinking they'll get change.
This is what our folks should be interested in viewing as opposed to worrying about non-talented musical and television slaves.
" *BLOOP!* " 💯
Exactly!!
💯💯💯💯👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥absolutely!!!!
And 1000 times more interesting and edifying too 👍
💯💯💯
What an incredibly intelligent and courageous woman. She was also a Visionary. Harriet Tubman was a true HERO, her legacy is just as important today as it was then.
I saw the movie tonight and it was phenomenal!
Margret Sims Be sure to read her biography to have distinction between truth and lies!
What an incredibly strong and courageous woman, I think the government should put her face on money she's definitely earned it more than most of those presidents, such an inspiration!
Diane Schultz A Harriet Tubman silver dollar is a better tribute, unlike paper currency it has real value is collectible and doesn’t need approval to replace anyone else’s image.
Agreed
She’s supposed to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill. It was voted on a few years ago but the release of the new currency got delayed earlier this year.
Having your image on money is NOT an honor.
Having the world remember you, and attempt to emulate you and be inspired by you is.....priceless.
I am from Chad, Africa
I have watched and red every
Single of a documentary out there
Yet I still feel like I need more
Not being a racist but Blacks
are my people ,especially afro Americans
you guys are so brave
400 years of slavery and counting
And yet still strong and standing tall
None of any other nations of blacks
Can live under that much of unfairness
Yet still survive , I have always admired afro American's courage
I wish our leaders in africa
Can learn from you guys
Forever and for always
Much love and mad respect
I have already visit Mandela's house
Next on my list ...
Harriet Tubman
Malcom X
Dr.Martin luther king
Those are my horses
They gave me a reason to believe
✊🏾
Why do we have to always apologize for not being a racist when we want to do anything concerning our own...my people stop apologizing....they never say im not a racist...love u my family
@wakeup people bruh what
@wakeup people just say you’re racist an move on
@wakeup people by the way you side black people as 'blacks' i know this was not gonna go good but ok what you are saying is that black people have freedom now and you don't like that we can talk back without being wiped and that we would not have to follow your people no more
I’ve always loved this brave woman, instantly from the 1st time learning about her as a child
WOW. A true Heroine.
OH, YESSS!!!
Can't wait to spend my Tubman's in honor of such a brave truly revolutionary figure in American history!
Its insulting to have a figure of freedom on paper that enslaves so many. It's just to make people feel better about wearing rose colored glasses in the supposed progressive present. The irony is so many black anerican slave descendants will have so little of those "Tubman's" since our wealth is at an average of $1700...
Now, that's a life well lived: with purpose.
She embodies my PEOPLES TRUE STRENGTH,BRAVERY,AND INTELLIGENCE BLACK POWER FOREVER!!!!!
🗣️ "FOREVERRRRRRR!!!" ✊🏾
Amen✊🏾
God thank You for ur love for taking care of Harriet, You shield her from the enemy and gave her wisdom and strength
As a 50 yr old Irish/Cherokee man....I'd LOVE to learn real "black history" from black folks.....not the "whitewashed" version we're spoon fed our entire lives. The TRUTH has to come out someday. Peace and Love from Atlanta
They werent there, so their version wouldn't be the whole truth either.
Theres an Blacks and Wax museum i Baltimore,Maryland and Also amd Africa American Musuem here in Washington,DC you can go to once they open back up
@@stephaniecamille947 Always better than the whitewashed version lady
Ask the most high Yah as he will disclose who we are....The scattered tribes of Jacob/Israel.A people whose history and identity stolen.A people blessed yet cursed because of disobedience to their God forsaking his way...🙏
@@rozzyfour it didnt take many lives thats a myth just like people saying cowboy shootouts happened alot in the wild west. They only like to show you the cruels only that happened there. 99%of the plantation owners didnt kill their slaves because that would mean income loss slaves were most of the time kept healthy because a unhealthy slave means no income. Yall acting like jews from WWII that got massacared
I'm Haitian I don't know much about black American history but I know how much they suffer from the hand of the other race.
If You're Skin is black you are The same as us we are not African American We are Hebrew Israelites and so are they Haitians we must Wakeup they lied to us read your bible Deuteronomy 28 it tells you who you are All Praises To ABBA YAHUAH HalleluYAH
Mane they need a Haitian revolution movie that’ll be lit! Y’all really did y’all thang on me
KISHAYAH LOVE I am an African and will tell YAH was with us before being with Abram. He revealed Himself to us as (The Alpha) UMvelinqangi
So What no ham you are second born. Shem is older
Silas Brown the letter kills but the spirit gives life.
The dreadful (to the enemies of Africa) day of the Lord is upon us, He comes to make an empire where the sun will never set. None of this is hearsay, I hope you have faith to believe beyond your indoctrination.
Imagine Kanye west saying Harriet Tubman didn’t help free black people! 😂😂
There more context to it.
@@christianbroadnax2381 found tbe racist 👆 GET EM!
Imagine Kanye West , in those days would he tried what Harriet did..that's the question..
@@Hawaiian_Viking there's more into what he said
@@chrisjoshua69420 I FOUND ANOTHER RACIST! 👆 GET EM!
What a woman ♀️❤️ imagine all the things against her. She never gave up!! Strength and courage a true Angel
Ms Tubman was over and above the most extraordinarily brave, determined and righteous woman of all time. She risked so much for so many, and deserves every bit of recognition for this.
God rest her soul.
Wow! She was the gold standard for the modern day Navy Seals. She was a Black female ninja. She's truly an amazing person!
Wao!!! God will always hear the cry of His people, God always chooses one person to help
She definitely needs to be in the 20 dollar bill
There's a movement to.put Harriet on the 3 dollar bill !
I never get tired of hearing these types of stories✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
I do. I pray for the day when these types of stories will be unnecessary because EVERYONE will have figured out how to allow EVERYONE to exist in peace and harmony.
Wow I remember I got an award in middle school for writing ✍a book report for black history month about this wonderful lady!! She and I got me an A!!! It was a great day.. 👍
Rest In Power^^
She was an activist. Amazing
What Mrs Tubman said is relevant today more than ever not with just blacks.
A new slave movie every year without reperation but a uncle Sam that take off the top and say you owe me
Never saw "UNCLE SAM" (@ 'ANY' of MY family REUNIONS), SO,
*FORGET 'UNCLE Sam'!* 🤣🤣🤣😐
🚶🏾♀️🚪🚶🏾♀️
Tamika Jackson This film about Harriet Tubman you can avoid seeing it it's been said that this woman Cynthia Ervio has made negative statements about Black ppl.Go see a film called THE BANKER starring Anthony Mackie and Samuel L.Jackson it's a true story. It comes out next month on the 6th.
Thank you for Harriet Tubman done for us another strong woman God had here to help lives families souls
WoW just WoW!! What a true hero and definition of a real woman!!! R.i.p Harriet Tubman, thank you for your service and you will always be greatly missed and talked abt until the end of time!!
Imagine her second trip back was to save her husband and she meet her husband with another wife.
Harriet Tubman was another Moses.
She aint no moses she Harriet leave it at that
Serve Yahawah freedom of speech, don’t you dear try to bully me in saying what you wants me to say. Thank you.
Moses never existed whites came into Egypt in got that story from my ancestors
@@jaysosa2003 you must have been watching too much Angel.
josematias2010 lol is not about angel it’s true do your research.
Thank you for your heroic bravery ancestor
We need a person like this in North Korea
Ur from north korea my friend?
There’s slaves there ?
they would problably get shot more instant than a protester in china
@@mtheprince6477 yeah. I mean, I've looked on Google.
What an absolutely amazing woman,through all her life,she achieved so much and helped many others
I'm doing a paper about her thank you for this video it helped me really understand her personality and I am amazed at her courage.
My respects to Harriet Tubman hope one day I can meet her in Heaven this brought me to tears! Just want to hug you when I see you Harriet thank you so much for this freedom fight !
Accidentally hit her huh?! Yeah right!
Well to be fair he was trying to hit another slave so this does not change the story. Just makes his assholery directed. At a different persob
? He was trying to hit someone else
Doesnt really make him look better
he was trying to hit her brother & she stepped in between them & took the hit for her brother
Kayne ihope that one day you will learn the truth about what you're being told. What color are you.
That slave owner unintentionally knocked Sense into her . Woke her right up . Strong black women
Harriet is someone’s great grand relative
They make is seem like this was so long ago
Taubman power and bravery. Makes me wanna cry. Love you Ms. Harriet!!!!
Can't believe 17 ppl thumbs down her an to know that 1.1 loved her story..she was brave very strong minded an self motivated...The movie of her was awesome...
V brave ,strong. Risked her life only to help other ,but not for money or fame
SHE HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY FAVORITE SHE-RO AND STORY TO TELL SINCE I WAS A CHILD!! SOOO INSPIRED BY HER!!! MUCH LOVE TO HER FAMILY. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HER AND MOSES,BESIDES OFCOURSE SHE BEING A WOMAN,IS THAT SHE WAS ABLE TO GO IN THE PROMISE LAND AND NOT JUST TO IT. GOD REST HER SOUL.
Ms Tyson just passed away a few months ago I remember watching the movie in school, just watched it today 30 years later and enjoyed it even more because I understand alot more.
"An incredible woman" were my exact words. Full military honors! U.S. government got something right.
Most badass woman in history!🙌🙌🙌
As a Native America of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe..... It would have been an Honor to meet this Woman Chief
She was a remarkable woman! Oxoxo to you Harriet RIP.
🙏🏾BEAUTIFUL🌷WOMEN
& a GREAT🇺🇸AMERICAN story
Could you imagine she say I'm here to set you free from this slavery. Then they say way we like it here. They still exists today who is with me on that. Note.
Thank you Harriet so much
All I can say is WOW, I KNOW YOUR A CAPTAIN IN HEAVENS ARMY, HATS OFF TO YOU MADAM....
Incredible woman!! So brave strong and beautiful
Truly amazing and extremely inspiring story...
A truly inspiring woman!
Harriet Tubman was an extremely brave woman ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 RIP ma’am 🌹🌹🌹 God bless you ❤️❤️❤️
I agree we should have Harriet Tubman Day.She was an amazing courageous woman.
I'm 13 years old and I asked my dad, "Was the promise land in Canada?" and "How many acres did Harriet Tubman receive?"
MAMA HARRIET owns land in Auburn New York.. it's a national state park now.. if u can ever get a chance to go please do.... u can feel the energy
I'm about 40 minutes from a black church that was part of the underground railroad in Canada, and just found out about a week ago that that's what that was.
We don't learn enough about what's out there.
Thank you MOTHER 😭😭😭😭 on behalf of everyone you freed and for being a brave soul. We may not have been around and we may not have experienced the cruelty that you and many others went through but WE LOVE YOU AND YOU'LL ALWAYS LIVE IN OUR HEARTS ❤️😘I HOPE YOU'RE PROUD OF JUST HOW WELL WE'RE ALL DOING TO MAKE THIS WORLD EXACTLY WHAT YOU'D HAVE WANTED IT TO BE ❤️✊🏿
God bless you great mother
She is my favorite American Hero!
God gave her visions to go and free her people i love God he is so beyond brilliant!!! I wish i could of ment this amazing woman
I thought we are suppose to honor heroes but yet she doesn't get the respect she deserves..At least the military honored her..She needs to be on money..
Good video but just extremely hard to watch knowing what they went through. I feel like these folks are still owed an apology from everyone for this.
God is owed the apology. When you hurt each other you hurt God because God loves ALL of us.
Thank You Ms Harriet Tubman A Real Heroine For Me RIp Mam
she is truly a hero. i really love the story. from ph
I am 8 and I know this much history I love history and writing and biography
What an amazing woman!
Being from Cambridge and she from Bucktown MD I found out that she was my cousin. She was Amazing.
I hope you talk about the people of Black Wall Street next.
I would be honored if you were in my family tree
What a woman.blessed
Incredible woman ✊
Astounding achievements by an intelligent, brave and innovative Womsn
That’s relative to the folks in the ghetto now. They don’t realize how bad the conditions are.
What a brilliant hero
They could not find a Person of Color to narrate??
Always
None applied.
R.I.P Harriet Tubman
Awesome woman
Free or die no more slavery.
Because of her we are free today she faught for freedom ty I love you.
I respect her and Fredrick Douglas the most.
I can't imagine what Ms. Harriet Tubman went through! Thank you Ma'am for freeing all our Ancestors!
Yeah The 300,000 union soldiers had nothing to do with it...
Most of were poor, and many Irish immigrants who never even seen a slave before.
She was buried with full military honors. Yessss Harriet!!
Iike this music of the singing men so much.
Some of Harriet Tubman off springs are in Louisville right now.protesting .powerful brothers & sisters.
Watching this for a school assignment rn
I watched her movie 5 Times I love that movie
GOD BLESS,REAL COURAGE
those people were strong I wonder if people today could have endured what those people endured back then.
THOSE PEOPLE??
Love you Harriet you one of my inspirations in life proud to be black
Wow!!! 👏👏🖤
May she rest in heaven.
A true American hero
I love this woman. If we could only do just a little bit of what she did.
Anybody know who's singing in the background when they get to the Abolishment part?
Regarding the title: I do not belive she said that bc they knew they wereslaves. Some were afraid to go for fear of getting caught and punished.
