Presbyterians and the Civil Rights Movement

 By now, if you've been reading this blog for a while, you know that 2013 marks the 50th anniversary of First Presbyterian Church of Sun City, but did you know that yesterday (August 28, 2013) was the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom? The March was a pivotal event in the Civil Rights Movement and where Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his famous "I Have a Dream" speech. Many Presbyterians were part of the struggle for equality. In honor of this special anniversary, the Presbyterian Historical Society is offering a variety of resources demonstrating the dynamic role Presbyterians played.  For readings, videos, and more, go to: http://www.history.pcusa.org/resources/civil_rights/
