Seventy individuals, representing more than a dozen local organizations, traveled from Saint Paul, Minnesota to Selma, Alabama to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Bloody Sunday. This journey wasn’t just about looking back. It was a call to action, a reminder that the fight for civil rights and justice is ongoing. The pilgrims’ experiences, their reflections, and the lessons they brought back are captured in this “Selma 70” exhibit. Through their eyes, we explore not only the history of the Civil Rights Movement but also its lasting impact and the continuous struggle for equality and justice in our own times.
Join us for the opening of Ramsey County Historical Society’s NEW exhibit, featuring a panel discussion with members of the group that made this impactful pilgrimage. This event is free, but registration is required.
