Mona
This is a fairly new National Park site. Excellent learning opportunities. Traci, the ranger on duty, is a wealth of knowledge. She grew up in the area and it is very clear she has a great respect for the area. Wonderful visit. The coffee shop next door is incredible.
Daryl
How Ice is basically acting out these same scenes in other cities is unreal. History does repeat itself.
Susan
Staff at the site are professional and go the extra mile to educate you on the historical significance of the sites. This is a multiple site excursion located in downtown Birmingham. Important to note most of the sites are outside, so check the weather before leaving and come prepared. On street parking is metered, unless you’re parked in a disabled spot.
Brandy
It was one of the places I needed to visit while in Birmingham. This was such a great experience to live. The staff are so sweet and eager to give you any information you want. I'm so glad I was able to squeeze this in while here for a work event that I had. I encourage anyone to go if you have the time. I just wish I could have visited the 16th Street church where the bombing happened. I will say there are limited hours when the mission and church are open, so make sure you check the times.

This museum is very well done. I found it very informative, and there were a lot of exhibits. The visuals of “separate but equal” were very thought provoking. Fair warning, we got there first thing in the morning when it opened thinking we would beat the crowds. However, there were 5 tour groups that were already there and waiting, and we had to wait about 30 minutes to go into the museum. So going a little later might be better.
