It's a Banner Spring for Selma this year as the banner
on the balcony at City Hall shows!
We hope the weather will stay at least partly cloudy like the skies above
for this weekend's 50th anniversary of the Voting Rights Marches
and later in April for the 150th anniversary of the Civil War Battle of Selma.
At left the sign proclaims Selma's Civil War to Civil Rights history, and at right,
it proclaims the "I Was There" theme for the Civil Rights events.
Selma's Historic Spring Pilgrimage March 20-21 will also reflect
our Civil War to Civil Rights heritage, and we would love to have you here!
Linking to Skywatch Friday

Very nice shot.
Selma is Action Central this year, isn't it? A major movie, civil rights remembrances, Civil War celebrations, etc. You must have a birthday sometime that we can add to the list!
i like this idea, the banner is nice! take lots of pictures!
That's right, Jack! In May, the Edmund Pettus Bridge will be 75 years old! And later this month, Selma Pilgrimage celebrates its 40th year!
Grand banners, and they're very fitting for the occasion.
Looks like Selma is the place to be!
