Carol Lloyd Quotes
The Underground Railroad refers to a loosely organized network of free blacks, slaves, whites, and sometimes Native Americans, who worked together to help enslaved people find freedom. This network was more organized in some places than others. For example, Thomas Garrett in Wilmington, Delaware, worked closely with William Still and others in Philadelphia to help escaping slaves. Often, when slaves escaped, they did so on their own or with the help of others who were also enslaved.

People should visit the Freedom Center all throughout the year; however, we do attract a lot of attention in February, Black History Month. We've only been open for one February and we had great attendance. So far this month, our attendance is strong, once again.
