Registration is now open for the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Conference, happening in Cambridge, Maryland, on June 5 and 6, 2015. The annual event features two days of workshops about Harriet Tubman and other freedom seekers on the Underground Railroad — as well as opportunities for local tours through the landscapes where Harriet Tubman once lived. The idea is to bring together professionals and individual researchers who have undertaken study regarding Harriet Tubman and the many other people who risked their lives to provide slaves an opportunity to escape this region, and place them into a larger context of national importance.
