A community-wide Unity Walk will serve as a kick-off celebration for Black History activities in Claxton today beginning at noon. The walk is intended to send a simple yet strong message of peace, freedom, joy, and unity, said Tarrie Powell, who is on the community planning committee for Black History activities. Community organizations and church groups, led by area preachers, will walk through the community beginning at the Church Street School, ending at St. John Missionary Baptist Church.
