By Erica Armstrong Dunbar

Until We Are Free is the powerful true story of the Underground Railroad, the clandestine network of abolitionists and free Black people who helped thousands of enslaved people escape to freedom in the North. Written by award-winning author and historian Erica Armstrong Dunbar, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, the fight for racial justice, and the power of human resilience.

Based on extensive research and interviews, Dunbar tells the stories of the courageous people who risked their lives to help enslaved people escape to freedom. She introduces us to Harriet Tubman, the legendary conductor who helped more than 300 people escape slavery, and Frederick Douglass, the escaped slave who became a leading abolitionist and author. We also meet lesser-known figures, such as William Still, a free Black man who helped hundreds of people escape through the Underground Railroad, and Mary Ellen Pleasant, a wealthy Black woman who used her resources to support the abolitionist movement.

Dunbar's book is a gripping account of the Underground Railroad, but it is also a powerful indictment of slavery. She shows how the institution of slavery dehumanized both the enslaved people and the people who owned them. She also shows how the Underground Railroad was a beacon of hope in a time of darkness, and how it helped to lay the foundation for the abolition of slavery and the civil rights movement.

Until We Are Free is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the history of slavery and the fight for racial justice in America. It is a powerful and inspiring story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
