The Saltwater Railroad - Path to Freedom

Most Floridians have heard about the Underground Railroad, that network of secret tunnels and safe houses that led enslaved African Americans north to freedom from the 1820s until the Civil War. But few realize that other Underground Railroads also offered hope and sanctuary to fugitives. Join Dr. Anthony E. Dixon, author, script-writer and producer, as he sheds light on the lesser-known but extraordinarily important path to freedom known as the Saltwater Railroad. No registration is required.
