SUNY Broome is proudly partnering with WSKG to open our campus to the community for a free screening of North to Freedom!

An original documentary from WSKG Public Media and filmmaker Brian Frey, North to Freedom examines the important role upstate New York played in the Underground Railroad during the years leading up to and during the American Civil War. The Central and Southern Tier of the state served as crucial passages and ultimate destinations for those seeking freedom, offering hope and refuge to enslaved Americans. Binghamton, Elmira, Owego, Ithaca, Syracuse, Peterboro, and dozens of other communities provided safe houses, churches, and sanctuaries along the route from the South.

Date: Tuesday, Feb. 4, 2025
Time: Daytime screening for students at 2 p.m.; screening open to the community at 6 p.m.
Location: Angelo Zuccolo Little Theater in the Student Center
