Southern Rural Black Women’s Hall of Fame Inducts Five

The Southern Rural Black Women’s Hall of Fame has five new members.

 
This is the fifth year for the hall of fame ceremony, which honored the 5 new inductees last night. All the women come from different backgrounds, but with one thing in common, activism in their communities and for civil rights.
 
The group aims to preserve the history of inductees’ legacies and promote economic opportunites in the black belt of Alabama, Georgia and the Mississippi Delta. There are now 25 women in the hall of fame.
