AI Summary

This resolution acknowledges and honors Harriet Tubman, a pivotal figure in American history, for her extraordinary courage, steadfast opposition to slavery, and significant contributions to the fight for freedom and equality. The resolution specifically recognizes Tubman's remarkable role in challenging the institution of slavery during a deeply oppressive period in the United States. By formally acknowledging her bravery and historical importance, the resolution aims to highlight Tubman's legacy as an African American woman who risked her own life to help enslaved people escape to freedom through the Underground Railroad and who later served as a scout, spy, and nurse during the Civil War.
