The largest Confederate monument in the world, Stone Mountain near Atlanta, sparks debate over its historical ties and symbolism. While some call for its removal due to connections with the Ku Klux Klan and its completion in the 1970s, others see it as a preservation of history. Beyond the controversy, the site offers sweeping views, unique geology, and a peaceful nature escape. . . . . . #stonemountain #stonemountainpark #stonemountainga #atlanta #atlantaga #atl #georgia #atlantaviews #historical #historicalsite #civilwar #civilwarhistory #civilrights #civilrightsmovement #mlk #confederatestatues #confederacy #monuments

A divorce letter to my mother in prison was actually a secret message. These Freedom Riders had some real cloak and dagger type stuff going on back in the day. #beajoan #civilrightsmovement #tougaloocollege #ushistory #freedomride #dst #mississippi #divinenine #americanhistory

Millenials are the first generation born after the Civil Rights Movement. (Meaning some GenXers were born before 1968). #Reparations #BlackHistory #CivilRightsMovement #onthisday

I’m greatly saddened to report that Charles Person, the youngest of the original Freedom Riders, who left on the two buses passed away on January 8, 2025. He was a dear friend of our family and will be truly missed. His legacy lives on in the spirit of freedom he upheld whether as a civil rights activist or a Marine. He truly had a heart of gold and worked to the end for justice and equality. #freedomride #freedomriders #civilrights #civilrightsmovement #ushistory #americanhistory #america #hbcu #morehouse #fietts #divinenine #beajoan #usmc #usmarines

"500 Miles" (also known as "500 Miles Away from Home" or "Railroaders' Lament") is a song made popular in the United States and Europe during the 1960s folk revival. The simple repetitive lyrics offer a lament by a traveler who is far from home, out of money and too ashamed to return. The song is generally credited as being written by Hedy West, and a 1961 copyright is held by Atzal Music, Inc. "500 Miles" is West's "most anthologized song". Some recordings have also credited Curly Williams, or John Phillips as co-writers, although Phillips admitted he had only rearranged it and "didn't deserve the credit". David Neale writes that "500 Miles" may be related to the older folk song "900 Miles" (Roud 4959), which may itself have origins in the southern American fiddle tunes "Reuben's Train" and "Train 45". Johnny Cash is known to have included "500 Miles" on his list of 100 essential country songs in the early 1970s.(Wiki) Here is Joan Baez performing the song. #500miles #folk #joanbaez #hedywest #dimestoreradio #folkmusic #SocialJustice #FolkLegend #MusicIcon #PeaceActivist #90sMusic #LegendarySinger #Activism #CivilRights #ProtestSongs #WomenInMusic #AcousticMusic #FeministIcon #Counterculture #MusicLegends #SingerSongwriter #MusicRevolution #EmpoweringMusic #InspiringArtist #CivilRightsMovement #iconicvoices

Fred Hampton, deputy chairman of the Illinois chapter of the Black Panther Party, was born on August 30, 1948 and raised in the Chicago suburb of Maywood, Illinois. In high school he excelled in academics and athletics. After Hampton graduated from high school, he enrolled in a pre-law program at Triton Junior College in River Grove, Illinois. Hampton also became involved in the civil rights movement, joining his local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). His dynamic leadership and organizational skills in the branch enabled him to rise to the position of Youth Council President. Hampton mobilized a racially integrated group of five hundred young people who successfully lobbied city officials to create better academic services and recreational facilities for African American children. In 1968, Hampton joined the Black Panther Party (BPP), headquartered in Oakland, California. Using his NAACP experience, he soon headed the Chicago chapter. During his brief BPP tenure, Hampton formed a “Rainbow Coalition” which included Students for a Democratic Society, the Blackstone Rangers, a street gang and the National Young Lords, a Puerto Rican organization. Hampton was also successful in negotiating a gang truce on local television. In an effort to neutralize the Chicago BPP, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Chicago Police Department placed the chapter under heavy surveillance and conducted several harassment campaigns. In 1969, several BPP members and police officers were either injured or killed in shootouts, and over one hundred local members of the BPP were arrested. During an early morning police raid of the BPP headquarters at 2337 W. Monroe Street on December 4, 1969, twelve officers opened fire, killing the 21-year-old Hampton and Peoria, Illinois Panther leader Mark Clark. Police also seriously wounded four other Panther members. Many in the Chicago African American community were outraged over the raid and what they saw as the unnecessary deaths of Hampton and Clark. Over 5,000 people attended Hampton’s funeral where Reverends Ralph Abernathy and Jesse Jackson of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference eulogized the slain activist. Years later, law enforcement officials admitted wrongdoing in the killing of Hampton and Clark. In 1990, and later in 2004, the Chicago City Council passed resolutions commemorating December 4 as Fred Hampton Day. #FredHampton #ChairmanFred #FredHamptonLegacy #BlackPantherParty #FreeBreakfastProgram #PowerToThePeople #CivilRightsMovement #BlackLiberation #SocialJustice #RevolutionaryLove #BlackPower #CommunityEmpowerment #AntiRacism
