Pathway of Resistance: The Erie Canal and the Underground Railroad In-Person
Pathway of Resistance: The Erie Canal and the Underground Railroad This constantly evolving talk examines the experience of African-Americans along the Erie Canal Corridor, with a particular focus on the struggle for abolition. While parts of this story are unpleasant, slavery, racism, and resistance are critical to understanding our society today
Steph Adams (they/them) is the Interpretation Director at the Erie Canal Museum in Syracuse, NY.
