KALAMAZOO, Mich.- Teenagers Darius and Victor Ledbetter and their parents are all too young to remember the iconic March on Washington but they just got a chance to experience the 50th Anniversary of the March this past weekend.

The teens and their parents loaded up into the car and took a road-trip to experience the March with tens of thousands of others.

The boys say they learned a lot from the speeches including why it’s important to be a leader in their community and the importance of voting.
