Ghost Lands

줄거리

Traveling along the Harriet Tubman historical byway, Ghost Lands reflects on the the natural and unnatural landscapes Tubman would have encountered on the Delmarva Peninsula. From the farm Tubman was raised on to the marshes she trapped muskrats in, Ghost Lands considers how the natural world influenced Harriet Tubman and what we can learn from these spaces today. Tubman often compared herself to a bird, commenting on the beauty and the mobility of freedom and flight. Ghost Lands is not meant to be a reflection of her lived experience, but rather a consideration of what we can understand about our shared past when we visit these spaces.
