performed. This afternoon you’ll continue on to Birmingham, Alabama, where you’ll have free time after dinner
to explore on your own or perhaps take in some “Mississippi Blues”.
Day 3: Birmingham, ALA. (Saturday)
You’ll meet “living historians” at 16th Street Baptist Church, the site of the tragic 1963 bombing that killed four little girls, a

itinerary before traveling to Atlanta, Georgia.

Underground.

The morning will be spent in the Sweet Auburn District visiting Dr. King’s birth home, Dr. King’s gravesite, and the APEX
Museum before heading to Tuskegee, AL, made famous by the Tuskegee Airmen of WWII, and the Tuskegee Institute.
This evening, you’ll travel on to Montgomery, Alabama, generally considered to be the “birthplace of the Civil Rights
Movement”.
Day 6: Montgomery, ALA. (Tuesday)
Today, at the Rosa Parks Library and Museum, you’ll view a multimedia re-enactment of Mrs. Park’s calm resistance to
relinquishing her seat on the bus, sparking the Montgomery Bus Boycott of 1955-1956. You’ll have a guided tour of the 91-
year-old Dexter Avenue Parsonage where Dr. King lived with his family while he served as Pastor of Dexter Avenue
Baptist Church. The Parsonage has been fully restored with original furniture and furnishings used by the King family. You’ll

2005, honoring those who were killed during the struggle for Civil Rights.
Day 7: Selma, ALA. (Wednesday)
You’ll take the moving “Footsteps to Freedom” Tour at the National Voting Rights Institute and meet
“living historians” who actually participated in the 1965 March on Bloody Sunday. They will guide you along the same route
taken by Dr. King and the brave civil rights advocates, both young and old, who in the face of violent opposition, walked
across the Edmund Pettus Bridge on their way to Montgomery to protest voting rights restrictions. Afterwards, you’ll travel
back to Jackson, Mississippi, passing en route through Meridian, Mississippi, where three Civil Rights activists from the
