Ways they Escaped

Henry "Box" Brown was born into slavery and escaped by mailing himself to freedom.

All slaves used different escape routes. Some slaves went north to the free states such as Illinois, Ohio, Maryland and Pennsylavina. While other´s ventured south to states like Louisiana, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Georgia.





Harriet Tubman and Fredrick Douglass not olny escaped from slavery themselves, but aided in the escape of many other slaves.
