What happens
A Woman Called Moses is a 1978 American television miniseries based on the novel of the same name by Marcy Heidish. Adapted for television by Lonne Elder III, the miniseries is about the life of Harriet Tubman, the escaped African American slave who led dozens of other African Americans from enslavement in the Southern United States to freedom in the Northern states and Canada. Narrated by Orson Welles, the production was broadcast on the NBC television network on December 11 and 12, 1978. Tubman was portrayed by Cicely Tyson. The production is notable for being one of the earliest dramatizations of Harriet Tubman's life. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
