A tribute to Harriet Tubman through an interpretation of the headscarf in her iconic photograph. The headscarf was described as maroon with white dots. Frederick Douglass said of Tubman: "The midnight sky and the silent stars have been the witnesses of your devotion to freedom and of your heroism. Except perhaps John Brown, I know of no one who has willingly encountered more perils and hardships to serve our enslaved people than you have." The deep red colors are also meant to be symbolic of the depth of Harriet Tubman's conviction to the cause of emancipation. The white stars in the lower right corner are embroidered. They represent the constellation that she used to help guide her as she led people to freedom.
