Civil Rights Pilgrimage
April 2023

“For the hanged and beaten, for the shot, drowned, and burned. For the tortured, tormented, and terrorized. For those abandoned by the rule of law.
We will remember.
With hope because hopelessness is the enemy of justice.
With courage because peace requires bravery.
With persistence because justice is a constant struggle.
With faith because we shall overcome.”


This is the text from the Peace and Justice Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama - a peaceful, sacred space dedicated to the thousands who died as a result of the horrendous racism that plagued the southern states from reconstruction and on into the 1960’s - and that still exists in many forms today.

In April 2023, we traveled to Birmingham and Montgomery, Alabama to visit and consider several sites of so much tragic history. We had time for conversation each day to think together about this experience. We were challenged, inspired, and deeply moved.
