On this day in 1853, Harriet Tubman joins the Underground Railroad, conducting 70 slaves to freedom in Canada. The Underground Railroad began in 1810 and it was many who in secret opened their home, business as a safehouse on the journey north.

On this day in 1902, Marie and Pierre Curie isolate radioactive element radium.
