About this listen

On this episode of Common Mystics, Jen and Jill uncover the inspiring yet tragic story of Bill Moore, a white man with an unshakable commitment to civil rights.* Driven by his belief in equality, Bill embarked on bold solo marches to expose the injustices faced by black Americans. His third march, in April 1963 from Chattanooga, TN, to Jackson, MS, took a devastating turn when, just outside Gadsden, AL, Bill was tragically shot and killed. What unfolds next, however, is a story that may surprise you.
