The Underground Railroad Freedom Center is home to an expansive collection of stories and artifacts focused on the journey of African Americans in America. This exhibit by Mikaila Favorite illustrates the “courage, cooperation, perseverance” that was so vital in securing freedom and eventual rights for the African American people. Each washboard in the exhibit tells a different story, each board depicts a different plight or triumph.
