Today, we’re shining a light on Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home National Monument in Jackson, Mississippi. This site honors the legacy of civil rights leader Medgar Evers and his wife, Myrlie, whose courage and commitment to justice continue to inspire. The home, once the site of the Evers family's resilience in the face of adversity, stands as a testament to the fight for equality and the impact of grassroots activism.
