The International Civil Rights Walk of Fame was created by Trumpet Awards founder Xernona Clayton, “to establish a permanent tribute to the brave warriors of justice who sacrificed and struggled to make equality a reality for all.” The seventh annual ceremony was hosted by radio personality Frank Ski of V-103’s “Frank & Wanda In the Morning” show and Clayton. Well-wishers included civil rights stalwart Rev. Joseph Lowery and Evelyn Lowery, as well as Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed. –christian johnson
