FRCMedia’s short documentary Safe Houses: The Underground Railroad in Fall River is now available to view on our website.

Safe Houses: The Underground Railroad in Fall River, is a look at the city’s role in the emancipation of slaves during the Civil War by utilizing the country’s Underground Railroad network.

In particular, the documentary examines six properties in the city where local abolitionists, sympathetic to the cause of slaves, assisted in their transfer from the South to free states and Canada.
