The Southern Courier Honored with Historical Marker | Montgomery, Alabama | HVP

On Saturday, July 26, 2025, The Southern Courier was honored with a historical marker in downtown Montgomery, recognizing the site where its office once stood. During the 1960s, the newspaper played a critical role in amplifying the voices of poor and rural communities across the South, covering stories often ignored by mainstream media. This historic initiative was spearheaded by Dr. Viola Bradford, a former Southern Courier reporter, whose leadership and commitment helped ensure the paper’s legacy is permanently recognized. The marker stands as a reminder of the publication’s impact on civil rights, grassroots journalism, and community advocacy. This video documents the unveiling ceremony and reflects on The Southern Courier’s enduring influence on history and the fight for social justice.
