An Alabama home where Martin Luther King Jr. and other civil rights leaders planned the 1965 Selma to Montgomery marches has been sold to a historical museum in Michigan and will be moved to a site near Detroit for preservation.
In an undated photo provided by Jawana Jackson, the Jackson House in Selma, Ala, which was home base for the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., who along with other civil rights leaders, planned the Selma to Montgomery marches for Black voting rights, has been acquired by a historical museum in Michigan and will be moved to a site near Detroit for preservation. It will be dismantled starting this summer and trucked more than 800 miles north to The Henry Ford's Greenfield Village in Dearborn.
DEARBORN, Mich. — A lot was happening in March 1965 in the bungalow in Selma, Alabama, that then-4-year-old Jawana Jackson called home, and much of it involved her “Uncle Martin.”
