| Video Discription | Harriet Tubman Visions - Spiritual or Medical? Harriet Tubman is one of the most inspirational figures in American history. The stories of her fearless exploits helping the enslaved escape to safety on the Underground Railroad are justly famous, but less well-known is the fact that she sustained a brain injury in childhood which left her with crippling headaches and a serious neurological disorder for the rest of her life. At the age of 12 or 13 a plantation overseer threw a two-pound iron weight at her head and knocked her out cold. She had to be carried back to the farm where she was working and was barely conscious for two days. She received no medical care, and as soon as she was on her feet, she was forced back into the fields to work, with the blood and sweat rolling down her face. She had a scar and a permanent dent on her forehead, consistent with a depressed skull fracture and afterwards she started experiencing episodes of irresistible sleepiness which would come on suddenly during conversations and when carrying out everyday activities and no one would be able to snap her out of them. The injury also coincided with a burgeoning of religious enthusiasm which she had not shown previously. When she woke up from the sleeping fits she said she had been sent messages from God. In this historical documentary, I explore the strange neuroscience of Harriet Tubman’s visions. A special thank you to Ella Last for her assistance in researching this video!
