| - The Harriet Tubman Memorial, also known as Step on Board, is located in Harriet Tubman Park in the South End neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It honours the life of abolitionist Harriet Tubman. It was the first memorial erected in Boston to a woman on city-owned property. The memorial is a 10-foot tall bronze sculpture by artist Fern Cunningham and depicts Tubman leading a small group of people. She holds a Bible under her right arm. The figures are backed by a vertical slab, on the reverse of which is a diagram of the route Tubman took when accompanying passengers on the Underground Railroad, and several quotes by and about Tubman. The inscription on the back of the memorial reads: Step On BoardHARRIET ROSS TUBMAN1820 - 1913Go Down Moses, Way Down in Egypt's Land,Tell Old Pharoah - Let My People GoThere are two things I've got a right to,and these are death or liberty.
