About 36 years ago this movie had a profound and emotional impact on me when it was played at my school. A black boy came to my school, Westminster Christian School in Elgin, IL, and became my best friend. His name was Brandon Johnson, now Cook County Commissioner in Chicago, IL. I have looked for this movie from time to time on the Internet, and just found it "by accident" after watching a documentary on Harriet Tubman. Thank you SO MUCH, reelblack, for making this available.
Wow...A Whole Black Boy Came To Your School? And You Became Best Friends? How Exciting. You Should Write A Book All About Your Adventures With A Black Boy.
Correction: I love these movie about your "ISRAELITE ANCESTORS" during there time of enslavement too! It shows how much they've endured. Making us their Descendants grateful for what they over came and what we must keep come during our time of captivity in todays system of So-called White Supremacy. Note: Our Ancestors were prisoners of war whom were forced into slavery. Slaves were not their original identity.
gloria ealy exactly you are right also they are the real stars 🌟 who suffered didn’t even get paid for free labour working none stop from crack off dawn to night plus beaten up so bad plus raped even kids where raped stabbed too
Ever since the show “Underground,” I’ve wanted to learn all that I can about the Underground Railroad...especially those who successfully escaped to freedom.
God bless the soul of Benji, for going after David, and for Benji's family too, for the aide they gave and the love in their hearts and of course to Harriet Tubman, one brave woman, who helped to free hundreds of slave.✌❤🙏
This is not where we came from. This was forced on us after being captured from Africa. But i agree young black children should see this as well as white kids so they will stop trying to tell us to get over it...
Kelvin Torrence you very wrong black race came from Africa who lost all their traditions, culture , these movies are not good for today’s young men and teenagers who are killing each other
Great upload! I really miss those days of the school films. Our people are blessed and don't even know we're the children of God. Our ancestor suffered horribly in bondage, but it was their strength to survive that's why we're still alive, today. We are the living legacy of our beloved enslaved foremothers and forefathers. Bless the day when our God sets his hand against our enemies and frees us completely of our oppressors, in the land of our captivity. We will be healed and restored as a people which are called by His name.
I watched this movie when I was a boy. Never knew the title but I remembered the lines : " Hide in the woods by day. And at night, just follow the north star. " Thanks!
The truth is, WE DON'T NEED ANY EUROPEAN AMERICAN IMMIGRANTS holidays! They ALL trace their roots back to EUROPE 1 to 3 centuries ago... last i checked, THAT MAKES THEM IMMIGRANTS! AMERICAN 1828 look up it's meaning? Also look up Christopher Columbus writings and what he said he saw when they invaded AMERICA!

A genuine story without any "false image" we can relate to from where we was & where we at today..... May our generation learn & equip themselves with these past History of our forefathers👍🙏
Reelblack, I am a life-long lover of reading and research. Movies that you bring to and for US pleases me immensely. Matter of fact, for students that sometimes get "bored" with reading, viewing movies like this should be included in daily curriculums, not a movie every now and then, because of the many truths that these movies hold. If I had been involved in the decision-making from the on-set, your channel WOULD be the "BET" that we should have had in the beginning.
When I tell you that I absolutely love this uploader and their content. Please continue to educate this younger generation who is WILLING to watch & learn..... this is truly the GIFT that keeps on giving ❤️🖤💚. This younger generation will never know where they truly come from unless they know where they've been......
I teach second grade in Miami, FL. in the middle of the biggest Hispanic population of Cubans and Mexicans. Today one of my students said her mom and dad hates me...because they saw me...they hate me because I am dark complexion with an afro... she said her mom said my hair is ugly. I told her God made us all in beautiful colors. I told her that her mommy is pretty with her Carmel skin, and I am pretty with my chocolate skin. The child was so worried, she said, "but why did they say bad things about you?" I finally said, "we will pray for your mommy and daddy."
Im petty, petty I would've told her that the white man hates her mommy and daddy🤷. Her mommy and daddy will be sent back to wherever they come from when they get caught but black ppl can stay....but you're beautiful
@@ronnettamatthews2371 lol, you are so right. Thank you. I cannot understand why the Hispanic population think themselves better than blacks, when it is so obvious that they are mixed with black, especially the Cubans.
U are a good person because I would tell that child her parents are ignorant and doesn't know their identity and I would call them in for a meeting and ask them what race are they from and let them know they not liking me only make 2less cockroach not liking me
The actress that plays Harriet is the same one who played the mother in the film, BLACK GIRL from 1972. This is the only other film I've ever her in. She is a strong character actress and I'd always hoped to see her again in something else, as she played her part so well in BLACK GIRL. Thank you for this time capsule and for providing me the opportunity to see this fine actress portraying another role. I doubt very seriously if I would have gotten to see this anywhere else. ✌🏽👑 👍🏽🙌🏾🙏🏽✊🏾🤜🏿💥🤛🏽🖤👍🏽

@@IceManLikeGervin They also came to Otterville, Ontario, a small rural agricultural community about 20 minutes from where I live. The Quakers helped them and they built a school and the African Methodist Episcopal Church and Cemetery; the Cemetery is still there today. These Freemen then went on to continue to work with Harriett Tubman and the Underground Railway. Amazing history!
It's beautiful. Though I think it would be wrong to sneak away from my father like that they raised him well. I wish more people had the heart of that boy.
@Jeannie Kendricku sound dumb there is good whites just as there is bad whites also its some good blacks and also bad black people there everybody is not the same dont put everyone in the same boat

@Jeannie Kendrick You sure have one hell of a way of twisting the Bible to back up your BS. You're deceived by your own venom.
Jay Waymon Blacks didn’t invite whites to take them as Slaves to America! Ofcourse their are good & bad in all races but most blacks are not good due to what ancestors been through this slavery long term trauma passed down into generations through genetically as generations off today suffering mentally and Psychologically, but whites have not been through a Trauma but are mostly horrible fake people who think it’s all about them
This was the second episode of the ABC Afterschool Specials that ran from 1972-1997...This episode originally aired on November 01, 1972...Hope that helps a little! Let the good TV Shows play on, and take care! Ms. Elizabeth 📺📼📀📺📼📀
Yes ~ Great ❤️ movie Follow The North Star, The Underground Railroad Movie ▪ ☆ ▪ ☆ ▪ ☆ Harriet Tubman who helped many slaves escape to freedom, and we should have a Harriet Tubman Day !! may God bless all who suffered from this amen ❤️ 💕
My mom who is 79 says she remembers her great grandmother coming down from Pennsylvania to visit prior to her passing, wondering if she was part of the underground railroad journey 🙄
Oh wow! It ended so guick! Good little movie though💕..... where you get these masterpieces from? Absolutely good...... too bad the ugly reality of prejudice and slavery Still exists!.!
Blessed yes Harriet was a true courageous Brave warrior who even Army men have to train for long time to Accomplish what she did and being a women in not even the right clothing nor shoes , The Lord worked with ok each step 🙏🏼, many slaves did what she did but stories where destroyed by white envies race
Man this shit had me on the edge of my seat. First time watching it. Never heard of it. I was at work. Just proof that hood film is just that. Doesn’t matter the technology. This is coming from someone who is 33. And this was an after school special!?
Harriet Tubman was a brave and smart women, we should love and honor her always. SHE MADE IT TO FREEDOM, BECAUSE SHE LOVE AND CARED ENOUGH, SHE LEFT HEAVEN AND WENT BACK TO PURE HELL, TO HELP OTHERS ESCAPE AND FOUGHT AND SPOKE AGAINST THE EVIL. INSTITUTIONS OF SLAVERY. SHE DID THIS BECAUSE SHE CARED ENOUGH.

i love these old time movies specially the ones about slaves it shows what my ppl been through
It also shows how they were helped.
God was with them

im so mad they cancelled that show it was great
for real "underground" was a great show. i was hooked since the first show. its terrible they cancelled it.
trunuyorker7 I wish some network would pick that show back up!
I loved Underground... I don’t know why the other networks wouldn’t pick it up
OWN picked it up.. just reruns..smh
God bless Harriet, and all the people with beautiful hearts, who cared enough about their fellow man to do what is right.
No doubt. Quakers were some of the most dope people when it came to this. Put their lives in the line when they had no reason to.

Harriet Tubman Davis was a very brave black women who over came great tribulations to escape the degradation of slavery.
