The screening is happening thanks to AARP and Cambridge, Maryland Mayor Victoria Jackson-Stanley. Starring Oscar nominee Cynthia Erivo, the movie tells the tale of Harriet Tubman’s escape from slavery and transformation into one of America’s greatest heroes. Before the movie, Diane Miller, program manager of the National Park Service Network to Freedom, will discuss Maryland’s place in the Underground Railroad and Tubman’s role.
