NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -
The Underground Railroad played a key role in helping many African-Americans find their way to freedom in the 1800s, and later this month you can see a free presentation about it at The Hermitage, President Andrew Jackson's historic home.
Representatives from the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center will put on the display and will name The Hermitage a "freedom station" for its rich history and African-American culture.
"There is a rich African-American heritage at The Hermitage, and there's such a grand story to be told about things that occurred here, and ways we can take what was done in the past and learn from it and grow as a culture and society here in Nashville," said Jason Nelson, VP of Marketing at The Hermitage.
There will also be a slave memorial at The Hermitage this Saturday to honor those who lived their lives in servitude.
