Summary
For America’s 250th birthday, historian Anthony Cohen embarks on a 750-mile “Freedom Walk” retracing the Underground Railroad’s route from Delaware to Toronto, using old maps and stories to honor the enslaved people who escaped to freedom. Joined by Tom DeWolf, descendant of America’s largest slave traders, Cohen reclaims a forgotten chapter of history — one step at a time — as he crosses into Canada on July 1st, arriving in Toronto on July 4th. This powerful journey isn’t just about distance — it’s about confronting America’s past, celebrating resilience, and reminding us that history’s most courageous chapters still echo today.
