Rachelle Zola is about to complete her 825-mile walking pilgrimage from Chicago, IL, to Montgomery, AL. Tomorrow, September 12, at 4pm, we will gather at Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church in Montgomery, and walk the final steps together. Then we will be in a healing circle to hear stories and know each other. Please share with all the weavers you know in the area!
Rachelle is a dear friend of mine, and a prolific weaver. She's talked to more than 1,000 people on this journey, as well as performed her one-woman show about her own journey of learning about racism very late in life—she's now 76-years-young.
One of the most important discoveries Rachelle has made—which she now issues as a challenge for us all—is to ask people this simple question: "What would you like me to know about you?" It's truly amazing how much people open up when you make the time to ask in a genuine way.
I joined Rachelle for the last 25 miles of the walk from Selma to Montgomery, which took two days. This is a tiny glimpse of her pilgrimage, but it was enough to show me the power of showing up for each other.
I also had the honor of walking across the Edmund Pettus Bridge with a foot soldier who was 14-years-old during Bloody Sunday in 1965, when marchers were brutally beaten and prevented from marching to Montgomery for Black voting rights. He gave me a live reenactment of the events through his eyes, which I'll never forget.

In one hour I’ll walk across the historic Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, AL, with Rachelle Zola. I do not take this lightly considering the terrible history of abuse and disenfranchisement of Black voters in 1965 with Bloody Sunday (and before and containing to this day). And it also gives me hope for what’s possible when oppressed people and allies stand for what’s right and get those with more power to listen and act. Join us if you can!
LATE LOVE for Racial Liberation Join Rachelle Zola as she crosses the Edmond Pettus Bridge in honor of the heroes who courageously risked their lives to stand up for voting rights.
