Harriet Tubman Statue Project - Maryland NOW

Harriet Tubman Statue Project - Maryland NOW: The Maryland NOW Statue Project is committed to putting Harriet Tubman in the U.S. Capitol. Hers would be the first full statue of an African-American woman in the Capitol,* and one of very few images of women. This commemoration of Harriet Tubman would also aid in representing contributions by Maryland's women and minorities to our nation's development. Maryland NOW is coordinating the grassroots support to complete this project with enabling legislation in the Maryland General Assembly's 2012 Legislative Session.
