A PEER LEARNING EXPERIENCE SHEDS LIGHT ON AMERICA'S HISTORY OF RACIAL INJUSTICE AND ITS LASTING IMPACT.

Over the past few years, leaders from across the Pohlad Companies have participated in a Civil Rights Tour in Montgomery, Alabama — a powerful peer learning experience designed to deepen understanding of America’s history of racial injustice and inspire action toward a more inclusive and just future. Held every other year, the tour invites representatives from each Pohlad company to engage with historic sites and reflect on the legacy and ongoing impact of racial injustice in the United States.

Participants visit the Equal Justice Initiative’s Legacy Museum and The National Memorial for Peace and Justice, as well as other historic locations such as The King Center, the Edmund Pettus Bridge, and Rosa Parks’ original apartment. Through these immersive experiences, participants gain a deeper understanding of the Civil Rights Movement and its continued relevance today.
