In March 1965 it took civil rights protesters three tries to overcome violent opposition to march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama as part of a peaceful crusade for Black voting rights. A few months later President Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law. Now, more than 50 years later, new laws and court rulings have put voting rights in danger, especially for Black Americans.
