Dawn of Days: Story of the Underground Railroad

The document under study is video about the Underground Railroad. It took place in the 19^th century in the USA. It was a network of abolitionists working together in order to save slaves by helping them escape from the slave states of the South to the free states of the North. The Underground Railroad was not a real railroad, it was a metaphor to illustrate the secret road to freedom.
