Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -fought for the Fugitive Slave Act.
Detailed explanation-2: -Tubman used various methods and paths to escape slavery and to go back and rescue others.

She used disguises; she walked, rode horses and wagons; sailed on boats; and rode on real trains.

And, as she once proudly pointed out to Frederick Douglass, in all of her journeys she “never lost a single passenger."
