The Underground Railroad in Boston

Over the next twelve stops we will hear powerful stories of people who seized their freedom on the Underground Railroad and came to Boston. We will also learn about the activists and allies in this city who helped these freedom seekers* along their way. This tour weaves through Beacon Hill followed by a few stops in Downtown Boston. The tour concludes at Long Wharf. *"Freedom seeker" refers to an enslaved person who took action to obtain their freedom from slavery (NPS Network to Freedom).
