This church was the epicenter of the Civil Rights Movement in Shreveport

Simpkins was in the process of transporting activists from the conference when police pulled over his station wagon. He was arrested, as was Reverend Ralph Abernathy (President of the Montgomery Improvement Association), Guy Carawan (Music director at the Highlander Folk School in Tennessee), and John Brooks (NAACP Director of Voter Registration.) All the men were held for about an hour and a half before being released.
