 If you have a Smartphone or a device that can load apps, download the app called "Augmented Reality Freedom Stories". It's free at the App Store.
You will be able to see and hear the stories of over 20 courageous Black people who found their own way to FREEDOM. Just open the app, and hold your device over the target pictures that Mme Walker Hope and Mrs. Traynor have and be amazed!
You can do this at home too by printing out the pictures at the Harriet Tubman Institute website.
