Civil Rides

Today we honor Martin Luther King— officially. How about we honor his legacy and what he worked for everyday, treating each other fairly and well. We’re more alike than we are different. Simply put: “Yes we can.” #MLKDay

CIVIL RIDES - UNDERGROUND RAILROAD Sept 11 - 12, 2020 - mark your calendar (reg coming on Feb. 1) Berea, KY to Marion, IN Two Days. Two Metric Centuries (or less if you desire) civilrides.com/underground-ra…

#OnThisDay in 1958, nearly 10,000 people gathered for the Youth March for Integrated Schools. In Brown v. Board of Education (1954), the phrase with "all deliberate speed" was interpreted by Southern states to purposely slow progress toward integration. #FreedomForward

Unity is needed now. Support our Civil Riders as we cycle through AL giving voice to and supporting actions of #civilrights and meeting hunger needs. Find if someone you know is riding or simply be part of the solution and choose "Support the Cause." outhunger.givingfuel.com/civil-rides-al…

@johnpavlovitz, would love to have you join us Civil Rides - Alabama. Our country needs things like this. civilrides.com/civil-rides-al…

#OnThisDay in 1965, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 became law, making it illegal to impose literacy tests and poll taxes that minimized minority votes. Many Southern states ignored implementation. We must ensure voting rights for all – make your voice heard. #FreedomForward

Some days I get to be in spaces that only God could make happen. Today was one of those days. I was almost in tears because my ancestors were with me leading me. Boldly asking for communities to be the drivers of their future. May God touch their hearts. I am so grateful.

How many more people have to die before we reinstate the assault weapons ban & the limit on high-capacity magazines & pass universal background checks? After they passed in 1994, there was a big drop in mass shooting deaths. When the ban expired, they rose again. We must act now.

I enjoy getting young people engaged in Mississippi history. This day, I got to take McKenzie and her dad out on a tour. While at one of our first stops (Fannie Lou Hamer's gravesite), I was glad to see individuals from @CivilRides. #tours @visitms @realdeltatours @GRAMMYMuseumMS
