More than 30 people from the Great Plains Conference and some friends from the Louisiana Conference are taking part July 12-16 in a civil rights immersion in Montgomery, Alabama, and surrounding areas. Day two featured a visit to the National Memorial for Peace and Justice and a short trip to the Peace and Justice Memorial Center, which celebrates the lives of those who were lynched in the United States. Both are operated by the Equal Justice Initiative, based in Montgomery. We would love to show you more from the truly powerful exhibits, but the museum allows no photography inside the building and only limited photography outside on its property.
