Welcome to Theme Day!
Here is where the Civil War meets Civil Rights at the intersection of Jeff Davis Avenue and Martin Luther King Street. Jefferson Davis was president of the Confederate States of America, while King was the leader of the Civil Rights Movement. Both men were significant to the history of Selma.

Great choice of post for today. And super close up.
Not for the first time has Jilly said exactly what I was going to say.
MLKJ is a man worth remembering.
Great shot!
That's a great shot and what a pairing! I think it was the anniversary of King's "I have a Dream " speech the other day.
Excellent choice! Both men who made history.
When I see it, I thought this street sign is in Cleveland since this is one the longest street in my city. Cool.
Great choice, indeed.
An intersection of ideals...it's interesting how cities around the U.S. have renamed inner city streets "MLK Jr. Way". (at least out here on the left coast) Hope for all!

Good observation. Very appropriate for the Theme Day photo.

A blend of history in a very real since. I like your post and the symbolism it represents.
Two great men who crosses only in the crossroads
We are on the same wave length with our street signs today, Rambling Round.
What a great intersection!
Good job !
As others have said before me, good choice!
Love your title...so original....
