International Civil Rights Walk of Fame

The site is more than just a promenade; it is an outdoor exhibit that showcases, in granite and bronze, the footstep impressions of those honored.

[1] According to the National Park Service, which runs the historic site, the Walk of Fame was created "to give recognition to those courageous soldiers of justice who sacrificed and struggled to make equality a reality for all."

The Walk of Fame has enriched historic value and cultural heritage to the area it is located, priming it into a tourist attraction.

[1] The Walk of Fame is a product of Xernona Clayton, an American civil rights activist and executive broadcaster.

[4] In 2019 it was announced that the Walk of Fame would be partially relocating to the National Center for Civil and Human Rights in downtown Atlanta.
