Panelists discussed the legends and lore of the Underground Railroad. The speakers showed slides during their talks. Professor White moderated the panel. Following prepared presentations, panelists responded to questions from the audience. The program began with a portrayal of Sojourner Truth by Alice McGill and an introduction by Niani Kilkenny.

This panel was part of a Smithsonian symposium on the Underground Railroad, a loose web of abolitionists who covertly helped slaves escape to freedom in early and mid-nineteenth century America. close
