Sojourner Truth Notecard

Artwork by Meneese Wall, a graphic artist, writer, and author highlighting American heroes. Her visual and written works have been published in numerous magazines, books, and online journals, and are sold through bookstores and museum stores across the country.

Sojourner was born Isabelle Baumfree (Belle), a slave, in Ulster County, New York around 1797; the exact year is unknown. By the age of thirteen, she’d been bought and sold three times. Of her five children, four by her husband Thomas (a slave) and one by a slave owner, only her infant Sophia remained with her when she escaped to freedom in 1826.
