Faith on the Walls of the Freedom Center

On the second floor of the Freedom Center you will find the following quote from Sojourner Truth:
“I have borne 13 children, and seen ‘em most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother’s grief, none but Jesus heard me.”
Did you know that the work of many abolitionist leaders was inspired by what she called “the Divine presence?”
