Throughout the 1800s, a clandestine network was underway along the North Carolina coast, and later the Piedmont, aiding enslaved people in escaping slavery: TheUnderground Railroad. Whereas along the coast, the escapes were largely made possible bynumber of Blacks (free and enslaved) familiar with waterways, docks and nautical work, the network spread to the Piedmont where it was aided by Quakers, as well as enslaved and free Blacks.In this lesson, students will learn about the Underground Railroad activities in the Piedmont through reading, discussion, and the review of primary sources from the Quaker Collections at Guilford College. They will then apply what they learn to develop a revitalizationand preservationplan for Snow Camp, NC.
