Why should Harriet Tubman be in the hall of faME?

She helped save the lives of 300 other slaves and she escaped from slavery as a young female adult. She was a great conductor of the Underground Railroad and never lost someone in the pursuit of freedom.


Was Harriet Tubman the female abolitionist was known for her extraordinary oratorical gifts?

I think you're getting her confused with Sojourner Truth. Tubman was most known for her work on the Underground Railroad, and Truth was known for her speeches.


How did women help in the construction of the transcontinental railroad?

While it was indeed an all-male job constructing the railroad, and numerous immigrants (especially Irish and Chinese men) were hired in large numbers, the Central Pacific Railroad History Museum notes an exception to the "all-male" rule. The CPRR hired Native-American (Indian) workers from the Shoshone tribe, and when that happened, the workers provided were both male and female; there is thus some evidence that Shoshone women were among the laborers who built the Central Pacific Railroad, though not in as large numbers as the male workers.


Why are women called black widow women?

In the mating ritual of the black widow spider, the female kills the male after he has fulfilled his duty of mating with her. When refering to a woman 'black widow', it is meant that she has killed her spouse/significant other. The black widow is common among female serial killers, which usually kill family members or people to whom they are caregivers such as nurses, ect. This is one of the major differences between male and female serial killers.
