ABOUT ABOUT

Walk, Hike, March through History Crossing the St. John’s Bridge.

In celebration of Black History Month, Love is King is hosting an act of solidarity, encouraging everyone in the community to come out and join us as we walk, hike, and march across the St. John’s Bridge to honor the spirit, work, and words of Martin Luther King Jr. in a Selma Bridge Reenactment!

We’ll begin promptly at 9:00 am with a short presentation on the civil rights movement, Bloody Sunday, and the march of Martin Luther King Jr. from Selma to Montgomery, crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge.

Featured Speakers include Chad Brown, James Edward Mills, Mic Crenshaw, Pastor Craig Brown, and the St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church Gospel Choir! 

We’ll come together in peace and unity to advocate and serve all communities.

Note: The St. Johns Bridge will be closed for this event, please park at the Cathedral City Park Public Parking and meet us at the St. Johns Bridge.
