She was certainly part of an early civil rights movement, but not the civil rights act. She died in 1913 and the Civil Rights Act passed in 1964.
Check out the info on her at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harriet_Tubman

Harriet Tubman was a slave. She worked to free slaves, sometimes that mean returning to the south and convincing slaves that they could be free. She had a very colorful life and was in that aspect, intrumental in early civil rights, but sorry not the Civil Rights Act of the 20th century.

sweetie, the civil rights act was like . . . in the 70's and 80's . . you know, MLK and the Black Panthers. Harriet Tubman was dead by then. She was in the era with the slaves. The civil rights act was after black people were free, trying to undo segregation n all.

She lived during the time of slavery...1850 or so. The civil rights act was 100 years later.

No, she was in the era of the Civil War, pre-Civil War.
