A church at the heart of Selma's 1965 voting rights march is an endangered place
The Brown Chapel AME Church, the landmark church that launched a national voting rights movement in Selma, Ala., tops this year's list of the nation's most endangered historic places.
Like religious congregants all over, the people of historic Brown Chapel AME Church turned off the lights and locked the doors at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic because it wasn't safe to gather for worship with a deadly virus circulating. For a time, the landmark church that launched a national voting rights movement in Selma, Alabama, was off limits.
