Harriet Tubman Commands the Room in The Good Lord Bird Clip

Leave it to Harriet Tubman to make a grand entrance.

When abolitionist John Brown (Ethan Hawke) is struggling to earn the trust of those he hopes to enlist in his war to end slavery, he gets the support of "The General" (Zainab Jah) at a crucial moment in this clip from the next episode of The Good Lord Bird. That respect has been earned.

The Good Lord Bird airs Sunday nights at 9:00 PM ET on Showtime.
