Durham The State of State History in Tennessee in 2008 The Underground Railroad in Tennessee to 1865 A Report by State Historian Walter T. Durham Tennessee State Library and Archives Department of State Nashville, Tennessee 37243 Jeanne D. Sugg State Librarian and Archivist Department of State, Authorization No. 305294, 2000 copies November 2008. This public document was promulgated at a cost of $1.77 per copy. Preface and Acknowledgments In 2004 and again in 2006, I published studies called The State of State History in Tennessee. The works surveyed the organizations and activities that preserve and interpret Tennessee history and bring it to a diverse public. This year I deviate by making a study of the Under- ground Railroad in Tennessee and bringing it into the State of State History series. No prior statewide study of this re- markable phenomenon has been produced, a situation now remedied. During the early nineteenth century, the number of slaves escaping the South to fi nd freedom in the northern states slowly increased. The escape methodologies and ex- perience, repeated over and over again, became known as the Underground Railroad. In the period immediately after the Civil War a plethora of books and articles appeared dealing with the Underground Railroad. Largely written by or for white men, the accounts contained recollections of the roles they played in assisting slaves make their escapes. There was understandable exag- geration because most of them had been prewar abolitionists who wanted it known that they had contributed much to the successful fl ights of a number of slaves, oft times at great danger to themselves.

  • Full Petition Here
    and several actually prohibit access to proceedings by anyone other than court personnel, parties, witnesses and lawyers, in direct violation of the Constitution. Because of this Court’s extensive work since March 13, 2020, to promote the safe operations of all Tennessee courts, including enabling and encouraging the use by courts of electronic communication tools such as teleconferences and video conferences, Petitioners now ask this Court to use its administrative and emergency power to protect the public’s Constitutional and common law right of access to court proceedings during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, Petitioners ask that the Court, in adopting rules and plans for court operations throughout the pandemic: 1. Mandate that all Tennessee courts, judges, and judicial branch personnel preserve and honor the right of the public, including all Tennessee citizens, crime victims and their families, the criminal accused and their families, parties to civil actions and their families, and members of the press, to be personally present in court for in-person court proceedings, to the greatest extent possible. 2. Mandate that all Tennessee courts, judges, and judicial branch personnel, if electronic means are used to allow judges, court personnel, parties, counsel, court reporters, witnesses, or others to participate in court proceedings, accommodate the public’s right of access to proceedings by use of electronic means, such as listen- only or view-only access that allows members of the public to listen to or view court proceedings, with clear notice to the public of the availability of this access, regardless of the ability to be present in person, because of the constitutional nature of the rights of the public to access court proceedings.
