The Enslaved & the Virginia Freedom Seekers
Listen now
Description
As we learn about Harriet Tubman, we also get a better understanding of the broader experience for African Americans in the 19th Century. We travel to museums throughout Virginia and to the presidential homes of Thomas Jefferson (Monticello) and James Madison (Montpelier) to hear how those stories are being told today. Go to Virginia.org/Harriet to learn more.
