“That educated didn’t mean smart. He had a point. Nothing in my education or knowledge of the future had helped me to escape. Yet in a few years an illiterate runaway named Harriet Tubman would make nineteen trips into this country and lead three hundred fugitives to freedom.”


What does that mean to you?

Respuesta :

Answer:

This passage is showing that you can be incredibly smart or successful without education. The passage used the example of Harriet Tubman who was incredibly successful at leading 300 slaves to freedom. This great accomplishment had to have taken a great deal of intelligence and wit. Harriet obviously did not get her thinking skills from a traditional form of education. Therefore it shows that you do not need education to be intelligent or smart.
