I don't know anything about "Bloody Sunday" but the bridge in selma , alabama is where they cast the movie for when the people was marching. It's history is still relevant today because it involves when our people was getting beat because the other race didnt like us for some reason. It is still relevent because it has alot to do with our people trying to get to vote and if that never would had happend we wouldn't be where we are today with having a black president.

i know that it was 6 hundred marchers, in Selma and it was lead by John Lewis. I think that it is still relevant because we should celebrate a very special movement like that because Martin Luther King risked his life just for us.

I don't know much about Bloody Sunday other than a lot of black people were marching. It's still relevant because we have the freedom to vote and that's what they were marching for.

I don't know much about "Bloody Sunday", nor the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, but I do know that this event was one of our greatest moments of unity; and for that reason, this is still very much so relevant today.

“Bloody Sunday” was televised around the world. Martin Luther King called for civil rights supporters to come to Selma for a second march. When members of Congress pressured him to restrain the march until a court could rule on whether the protesters deserved federal protection, King found himself torn between their requests for patience and demands of the movement activists pouring into Selma. King, still conflicted, led the second protest on March 9 but turned it around at the same bridge. King’s actions exacerbated the tension between SCLC and the more militant SNCC, who were pushing for more radical tactics that would move from nonviolent protest to win reforms to active opposition to racist institutions. On March 21, the final successful march began with federal protection, and on August 6, 1965, the federal Voting Rights Act was passed, completing the process that King had hoped for. Yet Bloody Sunday was about more than winning a federal act; it highlighted the political pressures King was negotiating at the time, between movement radicalism and federal calls for restraint, as well as the tensions between SCLC and SNCC.
