#Selma50: Commemorating Bloody Sunday

Published: March 9, 2015, 5:13 p.m.

Being in Selma, Alabama this weekend to mark the 50th commemoration of Bloody Sunday on the Edmund Pettus Bridge was a remarkable experience. To see the many foot soldiers, politicians, celebrities and so many other people unite as one showed those who fought for us that we have not forgotten their sacrifices for our rights and that we still have much to fight for. Hopefully, more and better change will come as we push forward to having equality across the board for all.
