STATUES OF ROSA PARKS AND HELEN KELLER SET TO BE UNVEILED AT ALABAMA CAPITOL . (PHOTO).



 Statues of Rosa Parks and Helen Keller set to be unveiled at Alabama Capitol 

Statues of Rosa Parks and Helen Keller, two of Alabama’s most influential figures, will be unveiled on Friday on the grounds of the Alabama Capitol, marking a historic first for female representation on the Capitol lawn. Parks, a symbol of the civil rights movement, and Keller, an advocate for people with disabilities, will join a landscape that has previously included tributes to Confederate leaders, offering a broader reflection of the state’s history.

The monuments come more than six years after legislation sponsored by Rep. Laura Hall authorized their placement, aiming to ensure visitors can “see the full picture” of women’s contributions. Parks’ statue will be positioned by the Capitol steps facing Dexter Avenue, where her 1955 refusal to give up her bus seat sparked the Montgomery bus boycott and the wider civil rights movement. Keller’s statue will face the Statehouse, honoring her lifelong advocacy for the disabled, workers, women, and the poor. The Alabama Women’s Tribute Statue Commission has overseen the project, from commissioning the artwork to finalizing its display.
