🚂 What if the Underground Railroad was more than a metaphor?

Colson Whitehead’s The Underground Railroad takes us on a harrowing journey through an alternate history, where the legendary escape network is reimagined as a literal railway beneath America’s soil. The novel follows Cora, an enslaved woman who risks everything for freedom, only to discover that each stop along the railroad presents new horrors, new allies, and new dangers.

Join our AI hosts, j(AI)n and d(AI)n, as we unpack Whitehead’s gripping storytelling, the brutal realities of slavery, and the novel’s powerful reimagining of escape, survival, and resistance. How does The Underground Railroad challenge our understanding of history? And what does Cora’s journey reveal about the long road to freedom? Let’s get into it.
