✨ Recently, we had the pleasure of welcoming visitors from Pittsburgh to the Freedom Riders National Monument in Anniston. During their visit, they participated in the Ranger Pledge and received a commemorative pin to take home and share with their granddaughter.

💙 Moments like these remind us that the stories of the Freedom Riders continue to inspire and educate people from across the country. By preserving and sharing this important chapter of American history, we help ensure future generations understand the courage, determination, and sacrifice that helped shape the Civil Rights Movement.

👉 If you're exploring Calhoun County, make time to visit the Freedom Riders National Monument in Anniston and experience this powerful story for yourself.
