IN MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA
WE'RE HAVING AMERICA'S
CONVERSATION
Ind
ulg
Throughout history, Montgomery, Alabama has faced our nation’s
greatest challenges. From the Civil War to Civil Rights, what hap-
pened here sparks the most vital discussions of today. And we’re
not only talking about the past. This city is experiencing a revitaliza-
tion informed by the lessons of the past, that celebrates the possibility
of community in a uniquely southern way.
Here, you’ll join hands and voices with visitors from around the world while
singing along to “This Little Light of Mine” at the Dexter Avenue King Memo-
rial Baptist Church, the place where Martin Luther King, Jr. transformed from
a charismatic preacher to a respected leader of the movement. Walk through
the hallowed halls of the Dexter Parsonage, where the King family lived dur-
ing the Montgomery Bus Boycotts.
You’ll get to know one of our most courageous locals at the Rosa Parks Mu-
seum and Library, and walk in the footsteps of the brave foot soldiers on the
Selma to Montgomery March Trail. Learn about those who paid the ultimate
price for equality and take a pledge to support equal rights on the Wall of
Tolerance at the Civil Rights Museum and Memorial.
