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 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. Presentation will be led by Derrick Pratt, Director of Education and Public Programming with the Erie Canal Museum of Syracuse, $5 per person, $4 for GSC Members
