BIRMINGHAM, AL (WBRC) -

A global company is now joining in this year's celebration of Birmingham's 50th anniversary of the 1963 civil rights movement.

Coca-Cola is sponsoring an exhibit at the Birmingham Civil Rights Museum. The exhibit looks at children's involvement in the Civil Rights Movement.

"What happened in 1963 reverberated around the world. The human rights effort that took place here," said Birmingham Mayor William Bell.

Coca-Cola is also working on a commemorative bottle to mark the 50th anniversary.
