This video features photos and video footage from our civil rights trip. We dedicate this blog and this video to all of the Foot Soldiers whose names are often forgotten, but played a huge role by participating in the Civil Rights Movement.

Montgomery: Southern Poverty Law Center
Since its creation in 1971, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has been committed to finding and eradicating hate groups throughout the United States. Our visit to the SPLC headquarters made it clear that the fight for the equal respect of races, religions, sexual orientation, and more, is ongoing. While the center did show us a video focused on the Civil Rights and featured an exhibit honoring 40 martyrs of the movement, the biggest takeaway was its focus on hate and bigotry post-Civil Rights era.
The most interesting aspect of the center was the “Wall of Tolerance”, which we all signed, making a pledge to fight injustice.
