A Broader View host Karen Turner explores why preserving local Black history matters, featuring a powerful conversation with Linda Shockley, president of the Lawnside Historical Society. The episode centers on Peter Mott House Underground Railroad Museum and Lawnside, the first self-governing African American community north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Together, they examine how ordinary people made extraordinary choices—and why protecting these stories is essential to understanding American history today.
