Podcast: Everything Everywhere Daily

Description: Before the US Civil War, a group of abolitionists didn’t just sit around passively to wait for the end of slavery to arrive.  They took matters into their own hands. They set up a clandestine network that operated over multiple states to bring escaped slaves to freedom.  Their network wasn’t a top-down organization, which centrally organized everything. Rather, it was one of the earliest examples of a decentralized network where the members didn’t even know who else was involved.  Learn more about the Underground Railroad and how it brought thousands of people to freedom on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
