#OnThisDay 60 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. led over 3,000 marchers through the streets of Selma in a pivotal 5 DAY journey toward Montgomery. This event marked the third attempt and a courageous stand against systemic oppression in the fight for voting rights. As they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge, a location marked by previous violence and intimidation, the marchers were shielded by solidarity and persistence. Their determination underscored the urgent demand for justice and equality and advanced a movement that would help transform America’s civil rights landscape. #Selma60 #StrongerTogether #History
