"The Underground Railroad"

A woman came to the library to do an all ages presentation called:

 "Stories from the underground railroad"

  She was phenomenal and also used instruments. When she asked if there were any questions I asked:

"Does slavery still exist today and if so where?"

  I did this for the benefit of the kids. She gave a 20 minute interactive answer. She said that she used to be a slave to food. There was only one black family in the audience. An 8 year old boy said: "Yes, there is slavery, when people abduct you after you get off of the bus!"
