Participants on the 2015 trip

June 11th, 2015

This year, Messiah College is sending six employees to participate in the “Returning to the Roots of the Civil Rights Bus Tour.”  They are Jonathan Bert, Dana Britton, Allan Mathew, Bill Strausbaugh, Kevin Villegas, and Cynthia Wells. Kim Phipps, President of Messiah College, will also be joining the group for four days while in Montgomery, Selma, and Memphis.

The trip this year runs from June 12–21, 2015, and will visit several historic sites of the civil rights movement in North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee. Part of their time will also be spent meeting with and hearing from various leaders and scholars of the civil rights movement. The participants will post to this blog during their trip, offering insight and reflection on their experience.
