| Program Description | Students interact with the residents of the 1860 era Ohio Village to help Rowena, a run-away slave, who is searching for assistance along her way to freedom, find the Underground Railroad conductor. Students will be asked to listen for clues in the conversations of the residents and will have the opportunity to ask questions as they try to determine which individual is the Underground Railroad conductor. Topics such as politics, religion, economics, education, and secession will be discussed over the course of the presentation. | |
