What you’ll do

Old Fourth Ward's cracked sidewalks and brick facades hold the streets where the Civil Rights Movement took root, where a preacher's son became a prophet and those who inspired him. On this 2.5-hour walking tour, we'll move through landmarks like Ebenezer Baptist Church, the King birth home, and the King Center before crossing Jackson Street Bridge for views that make the neighborhood's history land differently. All are welcome.
