And then, finally, I crossed the line. I was in Pennsylvania. I looked at my hands to see if I was the same person. There was such a glory over everything. The sun come like gold through the trees and over the fields. I felt like I was in heaven. I had crossed the line. I...was free.

Underground Season 2 Episode 6 Quotes

To tell you how I came to be free, first you gotta understand what bondage was like for me. How it attacks the senses. The sound of it. the crack of a whip like thunder. The feel of it...like you could barely take a full breath. The taste of it, like all your teeth, are made of copper. the smell of it. The fade in stench of everybody sold away; and the look of it, every eye turned down to the ground away from the horror.

The first thing I knew, was to be afraid of white men.
