Chicago's Role in the Underground Railroad Highlights Black History Month at the NSYMCA
Jan 27, 2023 1:21 PM - In honor of Black History Month's 2023 theme, "Black Resistance," the North Suburban YMCA is highlighting Chicago's role in the Underground Railroad. The programming will include visual displays throughout the Y's facility located at 2705 Techny Road in Northbrook. "Black Resistance" explores how African Americans have resisted historic and ongoing oppression, including slavery and the racial terrorism of lynching, racial pogroms and police killings. The Underground Railroad refers to the network used by enslaved Black Americans to obtain their freedom in the 30 years before the Civil War. The Railroad soon became a catalyst for propaganda as both the abolitionists and slave owners used tales of escape to gain popular support for their cause. The abolitionists used the stories of successful escapes to rally to action those who supported the causes of equality and freedom. -
