Contrary to some people’s belief, slavery was not just some unpaid work. It wasn’t this synergy where slavemasters provided free room and board for some help around the house. It was a terror, one that many slaves would do whatever it took to escape. One of those methods of escaping? The Underground Railroad.
Despite what Porsha Williams believes, the Underground Railroad was not a real train. It was a series of routes and safe spaces that aided the escape of slaves into free states.
Race to Freedom: The Underground Railroad is the story of a group of slaves who are willing to risk it all to escape slavery. Despite the odds, the Underground Railroad provides a safe haven from the slave catchers and tough weather conditions.
