We attended the National Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Conference in Cambridge, Maryland. This year the Harriet Tubman Organization partnered with the National Park Service, and Association for Study of African American Life and History.

As an Underground TV Show fan, I must admit that this is the only TV Show that I really watch because I am passionate about history, Black History which is part of American History. Underground is based on the book "The Underground Railroad" by Abolitionist William Still.
The reasons that I am such an Underground TV Show Fan are empowering storytelling by Co-Creators Joe Polaski and Misha Green about the Revolution and the Occupation of American American People. The Underground is produced by John Legend so the music of the show garners the attention of the millennials with its upbeat versatility. John Legend also portrays Frederick Douglass. John Legend reminds me of Frederick Douglass Great-Great-Great Grandson Kenneth B. Morris Jr..

We are looking forward to seeing more of John Legend portraying Frederick Douglass in Underground Season 3. We are especially awaiting the meeting between John Legend as Frederick Douglass and Aisha Hinds as "Minty" Harriet Tubman.

It would be great to have the entire cast film Underground episodes in the Eastern Shore, Maryland as it is the birthplace of Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass whom are two of America's Greatest Abolitionists. Harriet Tubman was born in Dorchester County about 1822 and Frederick Douglass was born in neighboring Talbot County in 1818. The Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Park and Byway is a must visit to experience Harriet Tubman's Legacy. Register for one or our upcoming
Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Tours.
