This week marks the start of the 50th anniversary of the civil rights “Freedom Riders”, who traveled by bus to confront segregation in the South. To pay tribute and to coincide with Oprah Winfrey’s historic reunion of surviving riders, theGrio put together this slideshow of incredible images of these civil rights icons.
