Yesterday, was a beautiful weather day. I enjoyed sharing the struggles of 1965 with tourists from Christ Presbyterian Church,
Madison, Wisconsin.
Two members of the group visited Selma in 2023. It speaks volume when our repeat tourists return.
The day began at our beautiful Selma Public Library with me sharing my experiences at age 15 with this very interesting and vivacious group. Afterwards we took the iconic walk across the Edmund Pettus Bridge and the Memorial Park, and enjoyed a delectable lunch at Reflections Coffee Shoppe.
Lastly, we toured historic sites in Selma. I appreciate that so many wonderful people visit Selma to learn of our history.
It is my hope that we will Never repeat the past.
Here's wishing this awesome group even more knowledge as they continue their southern Civil Rights Tour.
As we say in the south, keep em coming Jerry!
