High Tide

Right after sunset, three boats sailed towards the rice plantations
on the Combahee River. Harriet Tubman knew they had to hurry - they
only had six hours before the changing tide would make it very
difficult to get away. Edda L. Fields-Black's book is "COMBEE:
Harriet Tubman, the Combahee River Raid, and Black Freedom during
the Civil War." Say hello on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok. Sign
