Montgomery, AL 36104
Known as the birthplace of the civil rights movement, the city of Montgomery is rich with civil rights history, and no tour of Alabamas capital would be complete without a visit to the Civil Rights Memorial Center (CRMC). A project of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), it is one of Alabamas premiere civil rights sites and serves as the interpretive center for the Civil Rights Memorial, which honors the martyrs of the movement and inspires visitors to continue the march for racial equity and social justice.
