Let My People Go – A Journey of the Underground Railroad

When: Saturday, February 21, 2015 at 11am

Description: The characters in “Let My People Go” are based on actual people who lived in the Hampton Roads area. Our main character ‘Caroline’ is a young girl from Portsmouth, fleeing the South with the help of a friendly bird and a conductor who lives on the Elizabeth River. The story follows her inspiring journey from Virginia to the North, and is steeped in local history. Powerful, poignant, and at times comical, Caroline’s story is one that will touch any mind and heart, young or old.
