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!

PANEL DISCUSSION | SAGAMORE HILL

SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION

Often times the role of women in the civil rights struggle has been over shadowed.  For example, very few people know that it was women in Montgomery, Alabama who had the idea to start an organized bus boycott.  Today, 50 years later, women are still leading the way.  We are fortunate and blessed to have three such women who have programs and initiatives in their communities that making a difference in their communities and making dreams happen in the lives of others.  Come learn about the successful strategies of these “daughters of destiny”.
