In honor of Black History Month, join RAs Samantha and Patricia in collaboration with the African American Cultural and Historical Museum of Washtenaw County for a bus tour that highlights the role of several Underground Railroad historical sites in Washtenaw County.
The Underground Railroad was a network of secret routes, hidden places, determined citizens and self-liberated people of color seeking freedom. Two essential routes to Detroit and ultimate safety in Canada crossed in Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti. Discover the role Washtenaw County played on these docent guided bus tours and walks by the exteriors of local and nationally-known Underground Railroad landmarks, historic sites, cemeteries, buildings and homes. Tours cover Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti and Pittsfield Township.
