BONUS: Courage That Changed History

The bravery in Birmingham inspired the word — and eventually changed history.

Birmingham, Alabama, was ground zero for much of the planning, protesting and other activities that were critical to the Civil Rights Movement. On this special bonus edition of Gather and Go, we’re sharing an episode of the Alabama Civil Rights Trail Podcast that tells the stories of Fred Shuttlesworth, Martin Luther King Jr., hundreds of student activists and how their courage continues to resonate today.

This episode is brought to you by the Alabama Tourism Department.
