MISSION<\/p>\n

The U.S. Civil Rights Trail was designed to motivate people to learn more, see more and feel more. The website can tell the stories, but the emotional weight of those stories cannot be fully absorbed without standing in the exact spots where sacrifices were made and the direction of history was changed.<\/p>\n

INVITATION<\/p>\n

Join us in sharing the U.S. Civil Rights Trail and the journey to freedom.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Civil Rights Trail is a collection of churches, courthouses, schools, museums and other landmarks in the Southern states and beyond that played a pivotal role in advancing social justice in the 1950s and 1960s, shifting the course of history.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

CRITERIA FOR MEMBERSHIP<\/p>\n

The following criteria will be taken into consideration in determining an applicant\u2019s eligibility for inclusion in the U.S. Civil Rights Trail and in corresponding marketing materials \u2013 including the website, CivilRightsTrail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Only sites that are considered significant to the U.S. Civil Rights Movement during its height (1950s and 1960s) and provide a meaningful visitor experience will be chosen to join the U.S. Civil Rights Trail. The highest priority will go to landmarks where events impacted congressional legislation or Supreme Court decisions that extended racial equality in terms of public education, public accommodations or voting rights. Also, museums or locations that contain significant displays and interpretations of events from the civil rights era shall be considered.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Civil Rights Trail Marketing Alliance, in cooperation with a review committee of historians, academics and travel professionals, will consider all applications submitted between January 1 and July 15. All applicants will be notified by August 30 regarding the status of their submission.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
