Now or Never! The Voices of Emancipation - An Interactive Abolitionist Experience

Come take part in a living history experience where Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, William Still, John Brown, and other influential abolitionists seek to enlist potential freedom fighters. The action unfolds in a church sanctuary within the footprint of historic Germantown, one of the nation's most documented Underground Railroad sites, where you have a front row seat as they strategize, speak out, and risk their lives and fortunes just miles from the birthplace of American democracy. Powerful reenactments, original-text speeches, and live spirituals by professional actors, singers, and musicians create an interactive experience ideal for groups, classes, history buffs, and lifelong learners interested in how voices from this pivotal era still echo today.
