Stepping into the heart of Civil Rights history, Kingswood Oxford seniors spent Thanksgiving break in Montgomery and Birmingham, and it changed how they see the past. Visiting powerful sites like the Freedom Monument Sculpture Park and the Legacy Museum, students said the experience made history feel real—far beyond what textbooks could ever show. From seeing haunting memorials to hearing firsthand stories from survivors, the trip sparked deep conversations about race, justice, and empathy. The warmth of Southern hospitality was a surprise, too. Experiences like these don’t just teach—they transform. What do you think is the value of learning history up close? #Education #Montgomery #CivilRights
