Powerful visit to the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute. We have come a long ways but we still have so much further to go.

Today I had the chance to visit Fort Sumter in Charleston, South Carolina. Construction on the man-made fort island began in 1829 with slave labor. Construction continued for the next 30 years. The fort is most famous for being the site where the Civil War started in April 1861. Once the Union troops surrendered the fort in 1861, it was held by the Confederates until February 1865 when the Union troops captured Charleston. After the war, the fort continued to be an active military fort until it was officially decommissioned in the 1940s.
