From March 11 to March, with funding from the Izumi Fund, Professor Benson sponsored a trip to Atlanta and Montgomery, Alabama for students enrolled in her Election Law and Race and the Law courses. Eight students went on the trip. One half of the trip was spent meeting with lawyers at the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Equal Justice Initiative who work on death penalty litigation, suits against white supremacist organizations, and various anti-discrimination cases. The second half of the trip was spent touring parts of Alabama and Georgia that were relevant to the civil rights movement, including a journey along the Selma-to-Montgomery voting rights trail and a visit to the Voting Rights Museum in Selma, Alabama. The purpose of the trip was to offer students the opportunity to interact with lawyers currently working on civil rights litigation and to provide a view into the realities of the events that led to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
