she was a slave and she was trying to bring all of the slaves in there to get freedom.
The black slaves found out about the underground railroad by this lady named Harriet Tubamn and that's how the black slaves found the underground railroad. YOUR WELCOME FOR WHOEVER DIDNT REMEBER HER NAME -_-
She walked the UnderGround RailRoad when she secretly made 19 trips to take slaves to freedom. She had walk miles just to get people to freedom.She had to be careful. She always kept a gun in case one of the slaves wanted to go back she said`if you go back you die` `so walk on or die`
The slaves used either the underground railroad, or they found a crafty way to act like a free person.
In the book "Underground to Canada," Kentucky was where the character Julilly and her friend Liza escaped from slavery on their journey to freedom in Canada. They faced many dangers and challenges, but ultimately found help from sympathetic individuals along the Underground Railroad network. Kentucky was a pivotal point in their escape and symbolized the risks and hardships faced by many enslaved individuals seeking freedom.
Run away slaves escaped through a secret system called the underground railroad. The underground railroad was a connection of people who helped hides the slaves until they could safely make it to the north.
The railroad was not really a railroad per-say it was a network of people, houses and places that the slaves could go to in time of need for help and safety. If the slaves found a lantern on the hitching post, meant that the place was a safe haven.
Negro slaves that escaped from their imprisonment followed a route north to Canada, where many people along the way took them in and gave them a place to eat, sleep and hide while their "masters" were looking for them. Many people that did take them in weren't Negro themselves, but Caucasians that were against slavery and wanted these slaves to be free. As a result, they were willing to risk everything to open up their homes in secret to offer their kindness and hospitality to the escapees in their desperate times and dreams of their freedom when they crossed the border into Canada.
Slaves found safe houses through trusted networks of abolitionists, conductors on the Underground Railroad, and word-of-mouth information passed down through communities. They often used discrete signals or symbols to identify safe houses along the routes to freedom.
Slaves on plantations in Georgia often ran away to cities like Savannah or Charleston seeking freedom. Some attempted to reach northern states or Canada via the Underground Railroad, while others found refuge in swamps, forests, or nearby communities.

Because slavery was legal throughout the U.S. and runaway slaves found anywhere were legally supposed to be returned to their owner. The underground railroad, run by abolitionists, gave them transportation and places to hide while they were on the run.
