What others are saying about the tour
The Foot Soldiers [Park] tour was amazing! Ms. [Barbara] Barge, a foot soldier and our tour guide, was passionate, friendly, and very knowledgeable. The history of the site where the Selma-Montgomery marches began and choosing my rock was moving. An experience I will never forget!
Tour guest
Seeing [the Civil Rights] Movement through [Jo Ann Bland’s] eyes opens a window for all of us that is authentic with a rare view of what it was like to live there, through the most turbulent struggle for human and civil rights of the 20th Century. A first-person account is irreplaceable.
Tour guest
We had an informative and moving tour. If we had not toured without our guide, we would not have gone to the places she (Barbara) took us or gotten nearly as much out of our visit.
Tour guest
Ms. Bland has spoken to middle and high school as well as college students in my community [and] captivates the audience with her recount of the most horrific experience of her life. She motivates everyone in the room to think about how they can make the world better through their social justice actions and civic engagement.

You realize when you [take this tour] that our freedom is not a given, and that we have to work for it every single day. The way that we do that is to learn our history. Otherwise history repeats itself…Everybody needs to come here and experience this.
Tour guest
For over 15 years, I have been bringing over 1,000 people a year to Selma to be impacted by Jo Ann Bland. She brings those turbulent times to life and her story cuts right to the heart of the listener and makes them understand the struggle these brave Americans endured for freedom.
