Yes they did and that is why it was so amazingly secrative. Yes because some of the whites helped the slaves get to freedom by using the Underground Railroad.
my best guess is that the teacher is wanting you to tell them about the special quilts. the home owner would put out as a sign for slaves to know they are going in the right direction and that if a particular home was a underground safe house or no. different patterns would mean different things.
No, because if they did do you think the slaves would escape at all, yeah that's what I thought!
The Underground Railroad was not an actual railroad, but a series of "safe houses" that escaped slaves would travel along the way to the North or Canada. Houses that were part of the underground railroad were often marked by a quilt or lanterns, that only railroad guides, or "conductors", would know.
She did not choose to be a slave she was kidnapped and did not know where she was
The Underground Railroad was a series of free blacks and Northerners who were against slavery that would guide slaves up to the North to Freedom. It wasn't an actual railroad, but at times it went underground to hide slaves. It was coined "Underground Railroad" so slave masters wouldn't know what it really was, and it was almost like a railroad. The main people who came directly to the slaves and guided them along the "Railroad" were coined "conductors". One very famous conductor is Harriet Tubman, also nicknamed "Black Moses".
she escaped slaves (i don't know how many times) and she is the cunductor of the underground railroad
Yes in fact neighbors and other non salves were a big part of transportation. With out them the railroad wouldn't have worked.
The Northern States and Canada, but I don't know what the Northern States are though!
I'd expect that most people would know this, but it is the Underground Railroad.
During the Civil War time slavery was very rough. The Underground Railroad was very important and very useful, but some slaves did die. They were in harsh shape from traveling, especially children. So overall about 500 to 1000 slaves died.
Exactly what do you mean by this? I don't know. But Harriet did not lead the slaves to any star. She led them through an underground railroad.
