We went on the tour at the end of our day in Birmingham. It was a great way of seeing specific areas related to the civil rights movement. I enjoyed the presentation and learned a lot about the history and also got a feeling for life back in the 1950s and 60s.

A super thoughtful and accessible tour that powerfully revisits the Holocaust of the South. Really grateful.
