"The Freedom Center: Truth, Trauma, Triumph" Documentary Now Streaming

After a televised premiere on WLWT on December 3, a documentary about the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center is now available for streaming through Very Local.

"The Freedom Center: Truth, Trauma, Triumph" is a 30-minute documentary that pulls back the curtain on forgotten stories and surprising truths about the founding and start of the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center.

Through a mix of interviews and collected footage, "Truth, Trauma, Triumph" captures the journey of freedom in Cincinnati and beyond, with a call to action to learn more about the aspects of structural racism, how they manifest in our society, and the impact it has on individuals and communities for generations.

"I hope people will understand the valuable role that the Freedom Center plays, not only here in Cincinnati but also across the country,” Woodrow Keown, Jr., President and COO of the Freedom Center, told WLWT in an interview. "I hope they will be inspired to come to the Freedom Center and educate themselves around these issues of freedom, figure out what it is that they can do to go out and make the country better for everybody."

Watch the trailer below and stream this documentary now through the Very Local app.
