Harriet Tubman as channeled by first person historical impersonator Kathryn Harris.

 

Harriet Tubman, known as Moses to the many slaves she rescued, makes a point in her narrative.
 

Harriet Tubman could not read or write, so she askes Bill Donath to read from her biography. As Donath reads, Harriet verbally underlines the important parts. She memorized the book, penned by a friend.
