Interpreting their remarkable journies, the Freedom Center presents five permanent exhibits, including a special children\u2019s exhibit that reveals much about the secret network to freedom. Interactive educational programs, family-centered research, and interpretive programs promote a comprehensive understanding of the horrors of slavery, active resistance movements, and the achievement of freedom against the odds. The Slave Pen is an authentic 19th century structure that serves as a centerpiece of reflection and connection with modern audiences. Many other Underground Railroad exhibits provide visitors a concise historical summary of that tawdry period of American history. In total, the museum presents an unparalleled collection of educational programs, research, and interpretive programs to promote a comprehensive understanding of the horrors of slavery, active resistance movements, and the achievement of freedom against many odds.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-left:6px;margin-top:20px;\"><\/div>\n\n<div style=\"margin-left:6px;margin-top:20px;\"><\/div>\n<div
