U.S. CIVIL RIGHTS TRAIL – TENNESSEE SITES
VISIT THE PLACES IN TENNESSEE WHERE CIVIL RIGHTS HISTORY WAS MADE
Thanks to the U.S. Civil Rights Trail, travelers have connected access to more than 100 locations in 14 states that played a significant role in the Civil Rights Movement during the 1950s and 1960s. Tennessee has 14 stops along the trail that tell the stories of the brave men and women who brought words to action through peaceful protests and legal actions to secure their American civil rights. You can follow their footsteps through Memphis, to Nashville and end in the quiet but historically significant town of Clinton in East Tennessee to hear the stories of foot soldiers and learn the history of Tennessee’s role in the Civil Rights Movement, earning commemorative keepsakes along the way.
