Freedom Riders National Monument fosters reconciliation and racial healing by commemorating the stories, places, and people involved in the 1961 Freedom Rides, a nonviolent campaign that brought national attention to the brutal reality of segregation in the South and forced the federal government to take action toward ending segregation in interstate travel. I was tasked with creating the identity and branding for the Freedom Riders National Monument that is being created in Anniston, Alabama in partnership with the National Park Service.
