Follow the Drinking Gourd - Playing at the Virginia Living Museum

Celebrate Black History Month with this popular planetarium program about the Underground Railroad and learn how the stars of the northern sky led slaves to freedom. This poignant and inspiring take of one family's desperate flight to freedom is based on the children's book written and illustrated by Jeanette Winter.

They Took this from an audio book. We listened to it in class, a guy was singing "Follow The Drinking Gourd"

I remember my great-grandmother singing this song to me. I do wish they had played the lyrics though. But something is so moving about just playing the music and the images shown.
