The Underground Railroad was neither underground nor a railroad, but a secret network of safe houses and antislavery activists-black, white, and Native American-who helped slaves escape to freedom. Every home that welcomed runaways and every individual who offered food, clothing, or other assistance could be considered part of the railroad.
