Drunk History on Harriet Tubman



Harriet Tubman is the subject of the new movie Harriet, which is partially fictionalized. Meanwhile, the only fictional part of Drunk History is the drunk part. Wait, no, the narrator is honestly drunk, which lends a certain looseness to the story, but it's a true story. I love Drunk History. In this segment, Harriet Tubman is played by Octavia Spencer, a wonderful choice. Keep in mind that this is only one small chapter in Tubman's long life of fearless action.
