Slavery Remembered




     The last slave ship to arrive in American from Africa landed in Mobile about this date in 1860, and a ceremony was held at 6:00 a.m. this morning in Downtown Montgomery to commemorate the event. 
     Here are a few photos from the end of the event, when flowers were thrown into the River.
   
  Watch CBS 8 or ABC Montgomery at 5:30 p.m. or 10:00 p.m. for the story.
