In this episode, Networks of Flight, Escape, and Freedom: Exploring the History of the Underground Railroad in the Ohio-Kentucky-West Virginia Tristate Region, we meet Dr. Andrew Feight, Professor of American History and Director of the Center for Public History at Shawnee State University.
Currently, Dr. Feight is also serving as the Director of Research and Outreach for the Appalachian Freedom Initiative, an Appalachian Regional Commission POWER Grant project. The project seeks to document and mark Underground Railroad historical sites in the Tristate region of Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia. He and his collaborators will be shining a light on important historical events that happened in this Appalachian region.
In this episode, you will be introduced to how the Underground Railroad operated along the Ohio River boundary between Kentucky and Ohio. You will also hear local history come to life and get resources to explore these events more deeply.
