Join an incredible group of women to learn about the struggles of African Americans to gain equality in the 1950s & ‘60s as well as discover how Jews were involved in the civil rights movement. We will walk away understanding why Jews, as people who have known oppression, must care and act when others are oppressed. The journey will start in Atlanta and go on to Montgomery, Selma, and Birmingham. Stops include the Equal Justice Initiative Legacy Museum and Memorial to the victims of lynching, Freedom Park, the site where Leo Frank was lynched, the Rosa Parks Museum, the Martin Luther King Center/Auburn Ave. district, Ebenezer Baptist Church, walking across the Edmund Pettus Bridge, and the 16th Street Baptist Church.
