Deborah Douglas, author of the Moon’s U.S. Civil Rights Trail guide, talks with World Footprints about the places, people and events that were integral to the civil rights movement. Deborah traces the stories about the movement she grew up hearing about and she brings those stories to life in her book.

With profiles of national leaders and local heroes, helpful timelines, a suggested playlist and personal insights, Deborah’s U.S. Civil Rights Trail guide enhances the experience of a journey along the Trail.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton said, “The history of the past is but one long struggle upward to equality”. But the Civil Rights Trail is not a single long route like the scenic Appalachian Trail. As you’ll hear, the civil right trail includes attractions and experience across 15 states and new sites are constantly being added.
