About the author

The great-granddaughter of enslaved people, Ruby West Jackson (1929-2014) worked as a teacher and lecturer, community activist, and costumed interpreter of pioneer Black women in Wisconsin. A recipient of the National Parks Service Network to Freedom Award, she served as the African American History Coordinator for the Wisconsin Historical Society and wrote and consulted frequently on Black history and stories about slavery.

Walter T. McDonald (1927-2019) spent fifty years as a forensic psychologist. Over the course of his thirty-year collaboration with Ms. Jackson, Dr. McDonald mapped underground railroad routes into and out of Wisconsin and served as a script consultant for Rope of Sand, a play about Joshua Glover and the Fugitive Slave Act.

Christy Clark-Pujara, Associate Professor of History in the Department of Afro-American Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is a historian whose research focuses on the experiences of Black people in French and British North America through the early 1800s. Her current book project examines how the practice of race-based slavery, Black settlement, and debates over abolition and Black rights shaped race relations in territorial Wisconsin.
