Voices of Alabama is an oral history project conducted in partnership with World Monuments Fund, the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute and the Alabama African-American Civil Rights Heritage Sites Consortium (AAACRHSC). The project documents the 20 sites in the consortium that played significant roles in the African-American struggle for freedom—not just during the Civil Rights Movement, but beginning in Reconstruction. Voices of Alabama allows users to explore each site from the AAACRHSC through video, image, timeline, and map content. The online platform launched with a live panel discussion including Congresswoman Terri Sewell at The Times Center in New York City.
