"The Canaan of Liberty": Ohio's Underground Railroad in History and Memory

Amy Laurel Fluker, PhD

Robert W. Reeder I Professor of History

Department of Humanities and Social Sciences

Youngstown State University


In the decades before the Civil War, Ohio rose to the forefront of the antislavery crusade. For freedom-seekers on the Underground Railroad, the state became a powerful symbol of liberation from slavery. Still today, the state prides itself on its importance to the antislavery  movement. Over time, however, popular awareness of the significant obstacles that freedom- seekers and their allies faced has faded. This talk will bridge the gap between myth and reality  by exploring the fascinating legacy of the Underground Railroad in Ohio.

Sunday, April 10, 2022 at 2:00pm

TBA

All programs are free to the public, part of the Sutliff Museum's  "Nurturing Pathways to Freedom" spring lecture series.

All programs will be presented in the Community Auditorium of Boscov’s Department Store in the Eastwood Mall. Doors open at 1:30pm and the lectures will begin at 2:00pm.
