Harriet Jacobs:
A Black Woman's Fight to Smash Slavery
Abolitionist Harriet Jacobs, author of "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl," was born in slavery but managed to escape North. She joined in the fight to smash slavery through bloody Civil War -- the Second American Revolution. Her anti-slavery activism, forthright advocacy for enslaved women, and pioneering efforts to educate newly freed slaves illuminate the road forward for those who seek to challenge racist oppression and capitalist wage slavery today.
