This commemorative performance honors the events of June 9, 1964—known as Bloody Tuesday—when civil rights demonstrators in Tuscaloosa courageously stood for justice.

Weekly rehearsals will be held each Tuesday at 6:00 PM at Christ Baptist Church, 2610 Greensboro Ave, under the leadership of Rev. Dr. Ramsey O’Daniel.
