SOCIAL JUSTICE TRIPS TO THE HEART OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT

We are proud to organize family and group customized trips to Montgomery, Birmingham, and Selma, AL to visit sites such as the new National Memorial for Peace and Justice and the Legacy Museum: From Enslavement to Mass Incarceration. Working with our partners based in Alabama, we take travelers seeking to better understand American history and work toward social justice. Our programs include meeting “foot soldiers” who walked with Martin Luther King Jr across the Edmund Pettus Bridge, listening to the stories of life-long residents of these historic cities, experiencing local cuisine and music, meeting artists immersed in African-American folk art, and visits to historic sites and memorials that tell the story of the Civil Rights movement and the work that still needs to be done to create a just society. These trips are not “luxury” in the traditional sense, but are highly customized and expertly curated experiences. We can provide pre-trip speakers and a comprehensive resource list to prepare travelers for this journey. Please contact us for details. This trip will be an unforgettable experience..
