Discover the significant sites and landmarks related to Dr. King that played a crucial role in the civil rights movement. This in-person event will provide you with a deeper understanding of the history and legacy of Dr. King and his impact on the community. Don't miss this opportunity to honor and learn about this inspirational figure in American history.

This experience is being brought to you by Melaneyes Media, the producers of "Walk on the River: A Black History of the Alamo City," Learn more about the film HERE http://walkontheriver.com

Please arrive 30 min before the scheduled time as we will be leaving exactly at the time of the scheduled trip . Parking will be available at the Carver branch Library. This is where we will meet to load onto the chartered bus.

From Pittman-Sullivan Park at 1101 Iowa St, San Antonio, TX 78203, we will take a ride to visit a host of monumental sites including:

  • The MLK Park
  • SA MLK March Route(the largest march in the nation)
  • Martin Luther King Plaza
  • The Carver Community Cultural Center... and more

As we tour the city, we will explain the history and cultural significance of the places we visit. As the city grows and changes, as the “Eastside” (historically considered the Black side of town) becomes more gentrified, as historical locations and landmarks are being demolished or forgotten- we are doing our best to help preserve our own history and tell our own story.

The tour will take place on a modern 56 passenger charter bus which includes the following amenities:

  • Unobstructed View of Scenery
  • Tinted Windows
  • Controlled Climate System
  • Reclining Seats and Footrest
  • Individual Seat Lighting
  • On-Board Restroom Facilities
