| Zusammenfassung: | "The remarkable and inspiring story of William Still, an unknown abolitionist who dedicated his life to managing a critical section of the Underground Railroad in Philadelphia--the free state directly north of the Mason-Dixon line--helping hundreds of people escape from slavery"-- "Born free in 1821 to two parents who had been enslaved, William Still was drawn to antislavery work from a young age. Hired as a clerk at the Anti-Slavery office in Philadelphia after teaching himself to read and write, he began directly assisting enslaved people who were crossing over from the South into freedom. Andrew Diemer captures the full range and accomplishments of Still’s life, from his resistance to Fugitive Slave Laws and his relationship with John Brown before the war, to his long career fighting for citizenship rights and desegregation until the early twentieth century. Despite Still’s disappearance from history books, during his lifetime he was known as "the Father of the Underground Railroad." Working alongside Harriet Tubman and others at the center of the struggle for Black freedom, Still helped to lay the groundwork for long-lasting activism in the Black community, insisting that the success of their efforts lay not in the work of a few charismatic leaders, but in the cultivation of extensive grassroots networks. Through meticulous research and engaging writing, Vigilance establishes William Still in his rightful place in American history as a major figure of the abolitionist movement." -- |

Despite Still’s disappearance from history books, during his lifetime he was known as "the Father of the Underground Railroad." Working alongside Harriet Tubman and others at the center of the struggle for Black freedom, Still helped to lay the groundwork for long-lasting activism in the Black community, insisting that the success of their efforts lay not in the work of a few charismatic leaders, but in the cultivation of extensive grassroots networks. Through meticulous research and engaging writing, Vigilance establishes William Still in his rightful place in American history as a major figure of the abolitionist movement." -- Still, William 1821-1902 (DE-588)102774902X gnd rswk-swf Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Underground Railroad (DE-588)4730901-5 gnd rswk-swf Abolitionismus (DE-588)4302520-1 gnd rswk-swf Pennsylvania (DE-588)4045103-3 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Still, William / 1821-1902 African American abolitionists / Pennsylvania / Philadelphia / Biography Abolitionists / Pennsylvania / Philadelphia / Biography Underground Railroad / Pennsylvania / Philadelphia Antislavery movements / United States / History / 19th century Fugitive slaves / United States / Biography Philadelphia (Pa.) / Biography Abolitionnistes noirs américains / Pennsylvanie / Philadelphie / Biographies Abolitionnistes / Pennsylvanie / Philadelphie / Biographies Underground Railroad / Pennsylvanie / Philadelphie Mouvements antiesclavagistes / États-Unis / Histoire / 19e siècle Esclaves fugitifs / États-Unis / Biographies HISTORY / United States / General Abolitionists African American abolitionists Antislavery movements Fugitive slaves Underground Railroad Pennsylvania / Philadelphia United States 1800-1899 Biographies History (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content Still, William 1821-1902 (DE-588)102774902X p USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Pennsylvania (DE-588)4045103-3 g Abolitionismus (DE-588)4302520-1 s Underground Railroad (DE-588)4730901-5 s Geschichte z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe 978-0-593-53439-7 |
