In this compelling episode, I had the honor to speak with Ms. Michelle Jones Galvin, where we discussed her ancestry as a descendant of Harriet Tubman. The conversation explores how preserving African American history through institutions like the Harriet Tubman Home and National Historical Park shapes national identity and informs our understanding of American history. Topics include the importance of local government involvement in historical preservation, the intersection of race and gender in museum storytelling, and the power of Tubman's legacy. Ms. Jones Galvin also reflects on how cultural institutions can support modern-day advocacy, entrepreneurship, and education, especially for women of color.Learn more by visiting www.mosesofherpeople.com

Harriet Tubman was nearly ghosted from her own story. The National Park Service is walking back quiet changes to its Underground Railroad webpage that dramatically downplayed Tubman's presence. Gone was a large photo of her. Gone was a powerful quote. And the word "slavery" appeared nowhere until paragraph three. Instead, the revised page focused on American ideals of liberty — as if Tubman hadn't risked her life fighting a country that denied liberty to Black people. Let's be clear, Tubman wasn't a footnote in this history, she was the movement. Following a Sunday report by the Washington Post and backlash from historians and educators, the page has been restored. But the move raises serious concerns, especially in a political climate where anti-DEI agendas are scrubbing Black history out of federal spaces. If there's one thing Tubman taught us, it's never to stop moving forward. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

According to CNN, the National Park Service removed a prominent image and quote from Harriet Tubman on its Underground Railroad webpage, replacing them with commemorative stamps. The page now downplays slavery, cutting references to the Fugitive Slave Act and focusing instead on “American ideals of liberty.” Historians criticized the changes as oversimplifying history. Tubman's diminished presence comes amid broader Trump administration efforts to reshape government websites, including removing DEI-related content and targeting institutions like the Smithsonian. Critics say these edits distort historical truth. The NPS defended the changes, citing other tributes to Tubman. However, the only reference to her on the updated page is a small stamp, sparking concern about erasing key figures in U.S. history. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send us a textAfter public backlash and media attention, the National Park Service reversed its decision to remove Harriet Tubman's image and quote from its Underground Railroad webpage in February. Digital archiving tools revealed the changes, which historians condemned as "offensive and absurd" attempts to minimize Tubman's historical contributions.

Today on the show, we hear from authors who were inspired by history in wildly different ways. First, when Emma Donoghue encountered a famous photo of the 1895 Montparnasse derailment, she says she couldn't believe no one had written a novel about it. Donoghue's The Paris Express imagines what life was like for passengers on the old-fashioned steam locomotive. In today's episode, she talks with NPR's Steve Inskeep about the extensive historical research she conducted in order to write the book. Then, Bob the Drag Queen has called Harriet Tubman "the first Black superhero." In Bob's debut novel Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert, Tubman returns to continue her work as an abolitionist through hip-hop. In today's episode, Bob speaks with NPR's Ayesha Rascoe about the idea of freedom, Tubman's military service, and a recent appearance on The Traitors.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

What if Harriet Tubman came back to modern-day America to make a hip-hop album in order to continue her work as an abolitionist? That's exactly the world Bob the Drag Queen creates in their new novel Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert. “It is the most remarkable story in American history,” Bob says of Tubman's life. “Harriet Tubman sees how remarkable African American culture is, what it's become, how hip-hop has saved the nation, saved the world and she wants to take part in it.” In addition to the physical book, the audio experience of the novel is just as enthralling, complete with original music. “A part of Harriet Tubman's story is music. [She] did use music in her work as an abolitionist.” And the music included in the audiobook is “the best music I've ever written. Easily. I am so proud of this book. I cry when I listen to this music.” And true to form, Bob, a past winner of RuPaul's Drag Race, is creating a live show based around the book. “The book really is about freedom and what freedom means to you. We get to define what our freedom is... and in this book, Harriet is trying to help people get free.” Bob spoke with Newsweek's H. Alan Scott about how the book came about how much it would take for him to return to RuPaul's Drag Race.

Harriet Tubman once said, “I freed a thousand slaves. I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves.” That's a powerful yet sobering statement. It suggests that some people were so used to their chains that they had mistaken them for normal life.Now, before we assume this was just a historical problem, let's bring it into today.Closing Song: To Be Free by Harold Melvin & The Bluenoteswww.BibleDeliverance.org

She's known for helping to free people through the Underground Railroad, but Harriet Tubman was also a spy during the Civil War. And with the intelligence she collected, the Maryland native became the first woman to lead men into battle on gunboats down the Combahee River in South Carolina. The Combahee River Raid destroyed several vital Confederate rice plantations and liberated more than 750 people from enslavement.   Social historian Edda Fields-Black reveals new details about the raid and Tubman. And later in the episode, Ernestine Wyatt, Tubman's great-great-great-grandniece, discusses the importance of Harriet's espionage work and the legacy of her dedication to democracy.  If you liked this episode, check out these links: The Real Harriet Tubman African Americans in Espionage | International Spy Museum Subscribe to Sasha's Substack, HUMINT, to get more intelligence stories: https://sashaingber.substack.com/ And if you have feedback or want to hear about a particular topic, you can reach us by E-mail at spycast@Spymuseum.org,  This show is brought to you from Goat Rodeo, Airwave, and the International Spy Museum in Washington, DC.

Just in time for Black History Month, we share an episode we've been excitedly working on for a number of months now. Ethnomusicologist Maya Cunningham brings us “The Sound World of Harriet Tubman.” Maya Cunningham is an activist and jazz singer currently completing a Ph.D. at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, in Afro-American studies with a concentration in ethnomusicology.  We first came across Maya's work last year as part of The Harriet Tubman Bicentennial Project, an online initiative from Ms. magazine honoring the 200th anniversary of Harriet Tubman's birth in 1822. It's a remarkable package that adds many dimensions of understanding of the underground railroad conductor and feminist icon: Her experience of disability due to a blow to the head by a white overseer; her creation of a home for the aged; her love of the natural world; and much more. And to us, the richest of these essays was Maya's the “Sound World of Harriet Tubman,” which used field recordings, historical research, and ethnomusicological research to explore the roles of sound and music, and voice in Tubman's life and leadership. The piece included a Spotify playlist so you could listen as you read.  Today, we're thrilled to bring you what we hope will be an even more immersive experience: Maya Cunningham reading her essay, and thanks to the editing and mixing skills of Phantom Power producer Ravi Krishnaswami, her field recordings and playlist selections are mixed into the story.  And just a quick note, you're going to hear about the American Christian revival known as the Second Great Awakening, which stirred both Black and white people from the late 1700s to the mid-1800s. You'll also hear about the Invisible Church, where enslaved African Americans were able to worship secretly and autonomously and through the singing of folk spirituals, which differed greatly from white religious music at the time, but would go on to influence not only gospel music but pretty much every form of popular music we know today. If you want to learn more about this history, a great place to start is a book edited by two professors Mack studied with at Indiana University, Drs. Mellonee V. Burnim and Portia K. Maultsby. It's called African American Music: An Introduction.  And today, we share our Patrons-only segment, “What's Good,” in our main feed. Maya will recommend something good to read, listen to, and do.  Today's musical selections and soundscapes are by Maya Cunningham. The show was mixed and edited by Ravi Krishnaswami.

Happy Black History Month! Today we explore the life of Harriet Tubman, who every American school child learns a LITTLE about. Her life was much more complex and grittier than typical textbooks will lead one to believe; her work on the Underground Railroad is just the tip of our proverbial iceberg. During the Civil War, Tubman risked her life to scout and spy for the Union Army as well as worked tirelessly to provide social services for recently-freed slaves. Join me as we unpack the mythologies, bust them open as usual, and give thanks for those historical figures who have spoken loudly and acted with purpose.Here's Dorothy Wickendon's book: https://bookshop.org/a/80949/9781476760742Consider buying it via my Bookshop link above to support the pod.Support the showSupport Unsinkable on Patreon for as little as $1/month: https://www.patreon.com/unsinkablepodOr buy me a coffee!: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/labeadlesBuy Unsinkable shirts here!: https://www.bonfire.com/unsinkable-the-first-t-shirt/Support the pod via my Bookshop Storefront: https://bookshop.org/shop/unsinkablepodFind me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unsinkablepod/

The Portland School Board (PPS) wants voters to approve a construction bond measure of $1.8 billion in May. If approved, the measure would authorize the Board to impose taxes on all properties within the district to pay the principal and interest on bonds for the next 30 years. The total cost of debt service would likely be $3.5 billion or more. In any bond campaign, advocates are saying to voters, “trust us.” Should we trust the school board? No. Voters approved a $1.2 billion school bond measure in 2020, which allocated $311 million to rebuild Jefferson high school. Four years later, the budget has been increased to $491 million, but there is no school. The 2020 bond also included $60 million to create something called the Center for Black Student Excellence. None of the money has been spent, and no one at the district can even explain what the Center will be, who will operate it, or how many students it will serve. In 2022, the state legislature gave PPS $120 million to relocate Tubman middle school. The money hasn't been spent, and the district now admits there are no available sites for a new school in NE Portland. The school board needs to show that it can manage money before asking voters for more.

How do you choose hope when fear feels overwhelming? In her most recent book, “Night Flyer,” Harvard historian and NYT best-selling author Tiya Miles shares the powerful legacy of Harriet Tubman. We've all heard stories about Tubman's daring escape and work on the Underground Railroad. But how did she do it, and who helped her? Tiya Miles tells us about Tubman's humor, and the vital role her faith and allies, both human and non-human, played in helping her lead over 700 people to freedom. In a world where hope often feels out of reach, Miles reveals why Tubman's story continues to inspire and resonate with us today.

In a powerful tribute this Veterans Day, Maryland officially recognized Harriet Tubman for her remarkable contributions during the Civil War, commissioning her as a Brigadier General in the Maryland National Guard this past Monday. The momentous occasion highlights Tubman not only as a leader of the Underground Railroad but a courageous operative for the Union. Born Araminta Ross, Tubman's journey from enslavement to freedom fighter is legendary. After escaping to Philadelphia, she returned to the Eastern Shore multiple times to rescue family and friends. During the war, she served as a nurse, scout, and leader, notably orchestrating a mission that liberated over 700 enslaved individuals along the Combahee River. At the commissioning ceremony near her birthplace, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore praised Tubman as a pioneer of the phrase "leave no one behind," emphasizing her unwavering commitment to freedom and justice. Despite her longstanding contributions, Tubman was only recognized as a veteran. This posthumous promotion corrects this oversight, celebrating a woman who has inspired generations.

Big Picture: Trump won a landslide in the electoral college and control of the Senate; control of the House is unclear at this point. So much good work went into fighting Trump; but, a majority of voters know who Trump is and chose him. So, how did we get here? And, what do we do next? Harold Meyerson comments. Also: John Nichols looks at the elections results: For starters: Trump got fewer votes than 4 years ago; 55% of voters in the CNN exit poll said he was “too extreme.”Plus: Harriet Tubman escaped from slavery and returned again and again to lead others north to freedom. Now her story is being told in a wonderful new book, with the wonderful title “Night Flyer” –​ the author is Harvard historian Tiya Miles​ (originally recorded June, 2024).

[SEGMENT 2-1] The lesson in the 2020 coup I hate that Trump didn't get his 2nd term when he earned it. But I believe in a God who knows best, and I'm convinced that while painful, that was the right decision for the nation. We witnessed our government gone rogue. We actually got to see a real-life version of Dr. Evil as the cabal was exposed. Without that, we might still be slow boiling Welcome… I refuse to allow this to happen again. Because the blinders are off and the nation is no longer naïve to what Democrats are willing to do to get their way. The evil they are willing to commit. Let's not forget that Democrats have tried multiple times to kill Trump. And where are we on that incident, by the way. Hardly a mention of the attempt or the outcome of the investigation as to how that could possibly happen. But don't think Democrats are plotting other forms of demise for Trump, particularly as the election gets closer and the polls show what the world knows: Harris has no chance of beating Trump.

Every single one,” and “thinks he has a right of the Supreme Court ruling on immunity to be able, if need be, if – if it was the case, to actually eliminate, physically eliminate. Shoot, kill someone who is – he believes to be a threat to him.” “I mean, so I know this sounds bizarre. I know if I said this five years ago, you'd lock me up. We gotta lock him up,” continued Biden. After the audience began to applaud, the president caught himself and said that he meant “politically lock him up.” “Lock him out. That's what we have to do,” he concluded. Online, some speculated that Biden's comments might not be helpful to Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign. Axios's Alex Thompson received a text from one former Biden administration official who suggested as much before opining, “We gotta lock Joe up.” “For better or worse, no one is listening to him anymore and his words have little power and less reach. It's a blip.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I'm thrilled to dive into an inspiring conversation that perfectly embodies our brand promise—”impact through connection, community, and collaboration.” We're exploring the transformative power of strategic planning and emotional connections in the travel and tourism industry with Colleen Onuffer, the Director of Public Relations for Travel Alliance Partnership. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why we rebranded to Travel Alliance Partnership How we create impact through connection, community, and collaboration More about Colleen's presentation at the New York State Tourism Industry Association annual meeting How TAP collaborated in creating a fam tour exploring Harriet Tubman's legacy in Cayuga County The concept of “cathedral thinking” for long-term projects Impact of emotional resonance on event success and strategic planning A Collaboration Case Study Colleen Onuffer, Director of Public Relations for Travel Alliance Partnership, shares a Travel Alliance Partnership case study on creating emotionally resonant, memorable experiences for travelers. She shares how TAP lives their value to create impact through connection, community, and collaboration when working with destinations. By focusing on emotional resonance, authentic community engagement, and long-term strategic planning, tourism professionals can create memorable experiences that leave lasting impacts. When planning media trips, Colleen emphasizes the importance of creating experiences that resonate on a personal level rather than strictly adhering to historical facts. This approach aims to make the stories more meaningful and relatable. Media members were encouraged to find personal connections to Harriet Tubman's legacy at an event honoring International Underground Railroad Month in Cayuga County. This strategy profoundly impacted attendees, fostering a deeper appreciation of the site's historical significance. Key Strategies for Planning Memorable Events Organizing an event that leaves a lasting impression requires careful consideration of multiple factors. The event in Cayuga County, focusing on Harriet Tubman's legacy, was a perfect example. Attendees experienced a driving tour of Underground Railroad stops, met with Tubman's descendants, and engaged with local black-owned businesses. Such thoughtful planning ensured that participants learned about history and felt its emotional weight and relevance today. Community engagement was a cornerstone of the Cayuga County event. The involvement of local leaders, business owners, and Tubman's relatives forged a genuine connection between the media members and the community. This collaborative spirit enriched the event and promoted future media relationships, ensuring that Tubman's legacy continues to be celebrated and preserved. Feedback and Its Role in Shaping Future Strategies Event attendees' feedback highlighted the Cayuga County trip's emotional resonance and transformative impact. Testimonials revealed some amazingly memorable experiences and how people connected to African American history. This invaluable feedback guided future event planning, emphasizing the significance of emotional ties and engaging storytelling in conveying a destination's essence and personality. We also discussed the concept of “cathedral thinking,” which involves planning long-term projects designed to create lasting impacts. Just as medieval cathedrals were built to outlast their creators, the initiatives led by Travel Alliance Partnership aim to transform destinations sustainably rather than being a flash in the pan.

She also explores Tubman's marriage to John Tubman, her escape to freedom in 1849, and her leadership in rescuing enslaved people. Prof. Clinton also delves into the dangers Tubman faced under the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, her work with prominent abolitionists like John Brown, Frederick Douglass, and William Seward, and her service as a Union spy and military leader during the Civil War. Additionally, Clinton reflects on Tubman's later life in upstate New York, her advocacy for women's suffrage, and her enduring legacy in American history.

In 1849, Harriet Tubman escaped her enslaver in Maryland and freed herself. Over the next several years she took great personal risks, traveling back below the Mason-Dixon line at least a dozen times to free family and friends as a conductor on the Underground Railroad. Today, Lindsay is joined by Angela Crenshaw, Director of the Maryland State Park Service, who helped lead the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad State Park. Crenshaw shares her deep admiration for Tubman and provides insights into her life – from trapping muskrats in the swamps as a child to leading a raid behind Confederate lines during the Civil War.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In December 1850, Harriet Tubman saved three family members from an auction block in a daring rescue in Cambridge, Maryland. It was the start of one of the most legendary careers in the annals of the Underground Railroad.Underground activists like Tubman faced enormous danger under the newly passed Fugitive Slave Act. But they refused to accept a law they deemed unjust. In the 1850s, they brazenly defied slave hunters and federal officials, sparking a series of violent clashes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Popular culture is filled with stories of the underground railroad - the legendary secret network that helped enslaved people escape from southern slave states to free states in the north. Harriet Tubman is the underground railroad's best known conductor. Tubman, who was a Union spy during the Civil War, escaped slavery in Maryland, but returned again and again, risking her own freedom to help free others, including members of her family. Inevitably there's much we don't know ...including how the term, the Underground Railroad, came to be.Journalist Scott Shane, stumbled on the answer while he was writing his book "Flee North: A Forgotten Hero and the Fight for Freedom in Slavery's Borderland." His book tells the story of Thomas Smallwood, an activist and writer who's story and the key role he played in the abolition movement has mostly been lost to history.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.
