I've been reading this biography of Harriett Tubman and in the author's preface she notes how most of what regular folks know of Harriett Tubman comes from children's books, and she's right. It's part of how we collectively minimize and erase Black resistance to slavery. — PolitiTweet.org

Harriett Tubman has been become homogenized and softened in collective memory, because in dealing with her trauma, her brilliance, her belief in armed resistance, her military prowess, means we have to deal with the ugly truth of slavery. We prefer our softened myths. — PolitiTweet.org
