Is the underground railroad the only achievement Harriet’s done? Harriet Tubman’s had many “jobs.” You may think the basics, a chef, lawyer, nope. Instead, she did things that saved people's lives (specifically african americans) at that certain period of time. She was a civil war nurse, a caregiver, a spy/scout, and as everyone knows, the conductor of the underground railroad. Harriet Tubman’s known for being the conductor for the underground railroad.

Reason three is one factor that answers the question because Harriet has helped hundreds and hundreds of people. Whenever a person saves another person's life its splendid and great. Although, Harriet saved hundreds of lives so it's obviously a great
