Martin Was Here! The Life of the Iconic Civil Rights Leader

Martin Was Here! The Life of the Iconic Civil Rights Leader

Overview

This Atlanta Black History and Civil Rights Tour is an intense and intimate look at the community that was once called the 'Richest Negro Street in the World" and is still called "The Birthplace of a King"!

This tour is my favorite because it brings history to life the community that was one the pulse of Black culture in Atlanta and the place where the father of human rights was born.

Highlights: (This tour is priced to accommodate 1-5 people.)
•Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Park
•Birth home of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
•Atlanta's first integrated fire station
•Historic Ebenezer Baptist Church Heritage Sanctuary
•New Ebenezer Baptist Church Horizon Sanctuary
•Final resting place of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Mrs. Coretta Scott King
