HARRIET – a movie review by Gary Smolker

HARRIET

I saw HARRIET a week ago.

HARRIET is a great movie about an amazingly brave woman.

HARRIET escaped from slavery in the South at the risk of her own life.

Then she helped other slaves escape by going back South – at great risk to her life – where she hooked up with other slaves – at great risk to her own life – and then helped them to escape by leading them – at great risk to her own life – to freedom in the North.

She felt no man should own another man and would rather be dead than be a slave.

She lived by the motto: Freedom or death.
