Birmingham

This sculpture in Kelly Ingram Park in Birmingham, Alabama depicts a vicious dog attack during the civil rights protests in 1963. This sculpture is very effective. I got chills walking through and imagining what it just have been like. #civilrights #historymatters

I feel like I had heard of this church, but didnt really understand the significance of what happened there until I visited. The Birmingham Civil Rights Institute right next door is a really well done history of racism and civil rights in the US. I'd definitely recommend if you are in Birmingham for a while.
Several powerful sculptures were commissioned for the park to illustrate the Civil Rights Movement events that happened here. Police and Dog Attack - a sculpture at ground level that is made up of two opposing metal walls with three vicious dogs that lunge at you as you pass between them the way the dogs did at the 1963 demonstration. It's effect is profound and moving. View 3 of 4 #birmingham #MLK # CivilRights
Several powerful sculptures were commissioned for the park to illustrate the Civil Rights Movement events that happened here and this one was one of tho most moving. The park served as a gathering place for demonstrations in 1963 and fire hoses were turned on marchers, many of them children. This art piece depicts the #MLK #CivilRights

Spacious king suite with nice furnishings. The hotel staff and valet are super nice. We were able to walk to the art museum and the park which is just across the street. I would return again after the renovations and when the restaurant is reopened.
