for Lydia Polite in Defiant

Suggested by Jeshisthename

Defiant

This is inspired by the true story of a real-life, little-known American hero — Robert Smalls — who, as an enslaved person in Charleston at the height of the Civil War, pulled off the most audacious heist in history — a suicide mission if caught — by stealing his friends and family and the Confederate warship on which he served to run the naval blockade in the treacherous South Carolina waters and defect to the North.
