2022 MLK Freedom Bus Tour

2022 MLK Freedom Bus Tour - November 14-18
Presenting Sponsor:  MLK New Jerusalem
 
Costs:  $399/person (covers costs of travel, hotel stay, and museum admissions). Food not included. Payment deadline Oct. 1, 2022.
 
Participants engage in a week-long journey exploring iconic human and civil rights spaces in Memphis, Birmingham, Montgomery and Selma. In addition to museums in most of the cities, we also visit the Lorraine Motel in Memphis; the 16^th Street Baptist Church and Kelly Ingram Park in Birmingham; the Equal Justice Initiative’s new Lynching Memorial in Montgomery; and the iconic Edmund Pettus Bridge and Brown Chapel AME Church in Selma, among other interesting sites. This extraordinary pilgrimage satiates the participants’ quest for greater meaning as we contemplate the cornerstones of democracy.  
 
We start the trip from Allen College in Waterloo on Monday (Nov 14) at 0700, and we return to the same location on Friday night (Nov 18) by 2300. Participants are able to leave their cars in the Allen College parking lot at no cost for the week.
