HISTORICAL FIGURES THAT PAVED THE WAY *REST IN POWER*

HARRIET TUBMAN March 1822-March 10,1913

BAYARD RUSTIN MARCH 17, 1912- AUGUST 24, 1987

BAYARD RUSTIN MARCH 17, 1912- AUGUST 24, 1987

Harriet Tubman was an American abolitionist and political activist. Born into slavery, Tubman escaped and subsequently made some 13 missions to rescue approximately 70 enslaved people, including family and friends, using the network of antislavery activists and safe houses known as the Underground Railroad.

BAYARD RUSTIN MARCH 17, 1912- AUGUST 24, 1987

BAYARD RUSTIN MARCH 17, 1912- AUGUST 24, 1987

BAYARD RUSTIN MARCH 17, 1912- AUGUST 24, 1987

Dr. King is usually credited for the March on Washington in August 1963. But it was Rustin who organized and strategized in the shadows. As a gay man who had controversial ties to communism, he was considered too much of a liability to be on the front lines of the movement. Nonetheless, he was considered to be one of the most brilliant minds, and served his community tirelessly while pushing for more jobs and better wages.

NAT TURNER OCT. 2, 1800- NOV. 11,1831

BAYARD RUSTIN MARCH 17, 1912- AUGUST 24, 1987

MALCOLM X MAY 19, 1925- FEBRUARY 21, 1965

His moment came in 1831. Turner witnessed a full-eclipse and took this as his God-given sign to act. He led the only effective, sustained slave rebellion in US history. Six weeks after he started his crusade to freedom, it took 3,000 militia troops to overpower the 75 freed slaves in Turner’s army. Eventually, Turner was captured in Jerusalem, Virginia. Not long after, he was tried and hanged.
Turner’s rebellion, or “Old Nat’s War” as it was called, rippled through history. It shattered the complacent Southern myth that slaves were content to serve. It showed all Americans the power of a few to fight for what should have always been theirs—freedom.   

MALCOLM X MAY 19, 1925- FEBRUARY 21, 1965

CARTER G. WOODSON DEC. 19, 1875- APRIL 3, 1950

Malcom Little was born on May 19, 1925, in Omaha, Nebraska, and was also sadly assassinated in Washington Heights, New York City, New York, on February 21, 1965. Malcolm X was an African-American Muslim Minister. and African-American human rights activist. He preached self-worth to the community of Blacks in America and tried to teach many to reflect on where they came from and what they have accomplished; while also teaching them to love themselves and appreciate who they are and what they have.

CARTER G. WOODSON DEC. 19, 1875- APRIL 3, 1950

CARTER G. WOODSON DEC. 19, 1875- APRIL 3, 1950
