Keith Odom: A Forklift Driver's Journey to Honor Voting Rights Activists
Keith Odom, a forklift driver from Aiken, South Carolina, traveled to Montgomery, Alabama, for a voting rights rally. The rally aimed to honor the peaceful demonstrators who fought for voting rights in 1965. Back then, Black Americans faced violence from Alabama state troopers but persisted in their march with federal protection. Keith Odom, who was just a toddler at the time, witnessed the courage and determination of those who fought for equality.
