SUMMARY:A New Interpretation of an Old Story: the Underground Railroad Revisited at The Pruyn House
DESCRIPTION:Join with Paul and Mary Liz Stewart for an engaging presentation about the Underground Railroad movement and its contemporary relevance to be held at The Pruyn House in Latham\, New York. \nThe Underground Railroad\, often remembered as being characterized by tunnels\, dark of night escapes\, coded language\, and hidey-holes\, was far more extensive and complex than these ideas have led us to believe. In the midst of significant pro-slavery sentiment\, New York State was home to many abolitionists working to abolish the institution of enslavement in our state and nation and it was visited by many who had escaped enslavement and sought a life of freedom. Join with Paul and Mary Liz Stewart\, independent researchers and co-founders of Underground Railroad Education Center as they share a new interpretation of a very old story and explain the various initiatives in which Underground Railroad Education Center is engaged as it works to connect the public with this empowering local history and its relevance for us today. \n  \nInformation about the pruyn House is available by clicking HERE . \n  \n
