"The route has the advantage of following the movement's development chronologically -Tuskegee had a voting rights movement; the Montgomery Bus Boycott was in 1955-'56; Selma's movement began to pick up steam in 1963, and the big Birmingham protests were in 1963."
-Julian Bond
Highlights of the trip included:
- Bond's interview of Rep. John Lewis about Bloody Sunday
- Reflections from Rev. Robert Graetz; a white pastor of a black church in Montgomery during the movement
- Visiting the Southern Poverty Law Center and hearing from Richard Cohen (LAW 79), President and CEO
- Crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge
- Camille Morgan reading letters sent to her husband after he spoke out against the Birmingham church bombing that killed four little girls
