Meet Aisha Hinds as Harriet Tubman:   ”THE MOST NOTORIOUS RUNAWAY.”

Harriet Tubman was an American abolitionist, humanitarian, and an armed scout and spy for the United States Army during the American Civil War. Born into slavery, Tubman escaped and subsequently made some thirteen missions to rescue approximately seventy enslaved families and friends, using the network of antislavery activists and safe houses known as the Underground Railroad. She later helped abolitionist John Brown recruit men for his raid on Harpers Ferry, and in the post-war era was an active participant in the struggle for women's suffrage.

Meet Bokeem Woodbine As Daniel  In Underground Season 2 Episode 2 "Things Unsaid.”

Glimpses into Daniel's life as a slave on the fellow plantation in Louisville, Kentucky. He comes across as a simple family man with a lovely family. Then it hits you; life was far from simple for a black man during the 19th century.  Daniel was so proud because he was able to teach himself how to read and write. Something that now seems so simple was a dangerous act of rebellion.  It was heartbreaking watching Daniel proudly share a piece of paper that said "Love" with the love of his life with her going from being surprised to touched to fearful in a matter of seconds.If anyone finds out that Daniel can read and write, he could very well be killed. How humbling is it to think that what many of us believe is a right was once a luxury?Even those of us who may be descendants of slaves take reading and writing for granted. So many people fought and died for the right to education. Many risked their lives. People like Daniel.

Long time no post, but I’m working on a writing project right now that I’d like some participation in. It’s called Things Unsaid & that’s exactly what it is. A collection of ‘things unsaid’. It can be to anyone whether they’re in your life or not. It can be to a family member, a friend, or partner; current or past. Or to yourself ! It can be a confession, it can be happy,sad, positive, negative, forgiveness or lack of. I’ll add the link I have set up for submissions but my inbox here is also a good place to submit them. It can be anonymous or you can sign you name/ initials (whatever makes you comfortable)!

Day #7

Day #7: The person that means the most to you. Write a letter to the person that means the most to you in the world and tell them how you feel– exactly how you feel.

Dear you,

Be better than me. Be smarter, be stronger. Most importantly, invest in yourself. Believe in yourself. The most important thing is to stay proud--stay happy. You deserve the world. Remember that. You need no one. You need nothing. You are all you need. 

I love you to the ends of the Earth,

Me

Day #6

Day #6: The person that you never told you made a mistake. Write a letter to someone for something that you feel guilty for. 

Dear you,

It wasn’t so much a mistake to me as it was to you, but either way, it hurt you, and that’s what I’m sorry for. You deserve light, not my darkness.

I won’t let the shadow take me again.

Love,

Me

Day #5

Day #5 The person that you never told you believe in. Write a letter to someone that you have faith in, someone that you believe can do anything, but that you never told. 

Dear me,

As hard as it is to believe, I have faith in you. I think that you could conquer the world. I know that you are constantly pulled in two directions. I know that every day is a struggle and that you want to give up, but please, for me, don’t.

You can do this. You can surpass the challenges that are in front of you and you can surpass so much more. Think about your past. Think about everything that you have gone through and everything that you have conquered. You are merely building. 

You will grow, and the strength that you gain will be enough to take on anything. The only thing in your way is you.

Sincerely,

Me
