Women of the Underground Railroad
March 24, 2021 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Join with Mary Liz and Paul Stewart, local researchers and co-founders of Underground Railroad Education Center, as they share their research on women involved in the Underground Railroad movement. While much information is available on the work of men in the Underground Railroad movement, much less attention has been publicly provided about the courageous women, both freedom seekers and abolitionists, who dedicated their lives to abolishing the institution of enslavement and advocating for equity in housing, voting rights, education, and jobs.
Organized by the Women’s Club of Albany, the Stewart’s presentation will be followed with some lively Q & A.
