Sometimes history stirs our creative impulse to shape our own lives.
The abolitionist and suffragist Harriet Tubman (also the 1st woman to lead an armed expedition in the civil war), born in 1822, said, "Liberty or death: If I could not have one, I'd have the other."
As Tubman died in 1913, she said, "I go to prepare a way for you." --An echo of her life's work. Author Beverly Lowry wrote the book, __Harriet Tubman, Imagining a Life__, published by Doubleday Books http://www.amazon.com/Harriet-Tubman-Imagining-Beverly-Lowry/dp/0385721773/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1216376766&sr=1-1 . In the following book review, Karima Amin reflects on how Lowry's book prepares the way for all of us to, paraphrasing historian Howard Zinn, "imagine what radical change requires of us all...."
