Information about Harriet Tubman has been restored to a National Park Service website about the Underground Railroad
The National Park Service said Monday that a portrait and a quote from Tubman had been removed “without approval.”
As the internet archive Wayback Machine shows, the website "What is the Underground Railroad" in February began with a picture and a quote from Tubman, the formerly enslaved woman who helped shepherd others to freedom in the North.
But by the end of February, the website heading showed a collection of stamps honoring those who helped people escape slavery, including Tubman among others. The website change was first reported in a Washington Post investigation.
