THE U.S. CIVIL RIGHTS TRAIL IN GEORGIA Spanning 15 states and more than 100 landmarks, the U.S. Civil Rights Trail is a self-guided journey through the marches, speeches, and struggles that shaped the nation’s history. The walls of these schools, churches, courthouses, museums, and other sites do indeed talk – coming together to tell the stories of the people and places that shaped a movement. In Georgia, the journey includes both official stops along the U.S. Civil Rights Trail and additional sites whose stories further deepen our understanding of the Civil Rights Movement and underscore the state’s pivotal role in its history.
