Myth, Reality & Mapping the Underground Railroad

An Interactive Workshop & Panel Discussion

Few historic institutions from the black past have attracted contemporary attention more than the Underground Railroad. Tales of white abolitionists who steered escaped enslaved men, women and children through the secretive world of special codes, false walls and hide-outs in attics, barns and cellars, have sometimes distorted historical facts.
