This beautiful child and her grandmother, along with several others led the March in Selma last weekend commemorating the 52 anniversary of the Selma to Montgomery March.

May Peace Prevail on Earth

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church. It took the lives of 4 innocent little girls that day.  There will be a dedication of a sculpture in their memory today across the street from the church in Kelly Ingram Park.  I think this peace pole at the church says it all.

The Carleton Reese Memorial Unity Choir

This year Birmingham commemorates 50 years of the Civil Rights Movement.  The Carlton Reese Memorial Unity Choir performed at Independent Presbyterian's Casual Worship Service on Sunday evening.  The lady on the left is 83 years old and was a founding member of this choir which began as the Alabama  Christian Movement for Human Rights Choir.  She warned us that she was 83 and to forgive her if her voice cracked. It most certainly did NOT.  She was amazing as was the entire choir.
