Harriet Tubman’s life exemplifies the May theme of Courage. The word courage comes from the Old French word for heart corage, (as the seat of emotions). In Middle English, uses included bold corage meaning “brave heart.” Courage is essential to wield power non-violently in opposition to all that diminishes or negates life. Courage makes repair of the world possible. From her escape from slavery through the dangerous missions she led to liberate hundreds of slaves through the Underground Railroad, the story of heroic abolitionist Harriet Tubman is told in the movie Harriet. Her courage came from her deep faith.
