The promise land

How was Harriet Tubman like Moses in the Bible? What was her promise land? If you don't know about Moses, do an internet research to find out about him.
Both Harriet Tubman and Moses was the liberator of an enslaved culture who lacked a leader. Which may be the reason that both of them became the leader of their original culture. Both Harriet Tubman and Moses were already free yet both came back to the land that was most dangerous for them, risking everything they have just to accomplish what they think is right. Or their goals, I suppose. They are both responsible people who had a string sense of right and wrong, and allowed their conscious to lead them for always. I suppose the biggest factor that the two people share is their compassion and love for their kind. They simply can not stand watching others suffer, while they the people who could have done something about it sit back and do nothing. Moses's promise land was at Jerusalem and Harriet Tubman's promise land was at Canada. Even when the places seemed very far apart, they are actually not, since both places held what the people ad been looking for- freedom.
