(WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FOR TWO CORRECT ANSWERS AND 30 POINTS)
6 and 7
Tubman took risks daily. She used her experience to develop strategies to keep the Underground Railroad network safe and running smoothly. For example, she advised persons held in slavery to escape on a Saturday night. Since Sunday was a day of rest, owners would not discover the escape until Monday. People were encouraged to travel at night and to travel in spring and fall, when the days were shorter and the weather was mild. Tubman became well-known in the abolition and women’s rights communities because of her intelligence, courage, and leadership.
One of Tubman’s last trips on the Underground Railroad was to bring her parents north to Canada. It was especially dangerous because Tubman’s father was already in trouble for having sheltered runaways in his home. Although her parents were elderly, the trip was a success. Shortly after this, the Civil War began and the Underground Railroad stopped operating. Tubman turned her attention to the war effort. She first worked as a nurse and a cook, but quickly volunteered as a scout and a spy to help the army free persons held in slavery.
