Everybody knows about the Founding Fathers and the Declaration of Independence in 1776. But the founders weren't the only ones who believed that everyone had a right to freedom. Mumbet, a Massachusetts slave, believed it too. She longed to be free, but how? Would anyone help her in her fight for freedom? Could she win against her owner, the richest man in town?
This book tells the story of a Massachusetts slave from the Revolutionary era. In 1781, she successfully used the new Massachusetts Constitution to make a legal case that she should be free.
