50th Anniversary March on Washington
  • 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington

    On August 27th hundreds of citizens attended the 2013 Conference on Civil Rights: Marching Forward By Looking Back. The following morning, on August 28, 2013, thousands of citizens, from across this country, converged upon our nation’s capital to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington.
    This site provides opportunities for people to share remembrances of and pictures from both marches. Additionally, visitors to this site can get updates on a variety of ongoing civil rights initiatives intended to make Dr. King’s dream a reality.

    Thank you for your support!

SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION

Three students from Jefferson Davis high school (in historic Montgomery, Alabama) and three students from Tangipahoa Parish in Louisiana will discuss (from their perspective as youth and students) how they view the history of civil rights in the United States and how they see their lives impacted by that struggle today.
