Montgomery City positioned to host civil-rights history conferences, speaker says

An Unidentified Speaker (Speaker) at a Montgomery City meeting said the city is ready to host conferences and events focused on local civil-rights history. "That future mayors, future council members, and future leaders of this city, will be able to host the type of conferences and type of events that we believe the city, is poised to have," the speaker said.

The speaker named local sites as potential anchors for that programming, saying "so many people wanna learn about the history of Dexter Avenue, King Memorial Baptist Church." They added that many are interested in "the modern civil rights movement and how it all took place and how it applies to today's."
