About this event

MCC and Road Scholar have teamed up for a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit key cities that played crucial roles in the early days of the Civil Rights Movement.

Journey south into the heart of the civil rights movement to gain a deeper understanding of the historic and continued struggle for racial equality in the United States. Follow in the footsteps of the venerable Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his legendary marches, and hear the moving story of Rosa Parks and the Montgomery bus boycott. Walk across the Selma Bridge with an activist who took part in the peaceful protest that devolved into unforgivable violence known as “Bloody Sunday.” Pay homage at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church as you learn the story of the victims of the 1963 KKK bombing. Study how these catalysts ignited a movement that would define this pivotal moment in American history.

Come learn more about this private MCC tour and hear stories and insights from MCC members who’ve experienced it firsthand.  This tour is open for MCC members, friends, and family.
