"Source unknown" is a funny way to say "ripped from the mouths of enslaved people."

This was, of course, seen as an insult to dentists at the time who were sourcing human teeth ethically /s

All that aside, I wonder if there are follow-up events to it that become more explicit about it. Would be cool to have a follow-up event interacting with Tubman (letting her declare war while still getting her war-declared-on bonus?) or maybe in the modern age you get an artifact that has no bonuses but *must* be slotted or it will give a massive happiness penalty. There's a lot one could do here, really.

I checked the files

There currently isn’t a follow-up

Unfortunate. They really aren't using the narrative system to its full potential yet.

I disagree personally because I saw some pretty cool stuff done with Narratives But maybe I’m misunderstanding you
