During the march, over 100 people gathered and marched from Selma to the capital city of Montgomery to ensure that African Americans could exercise their constitutional right to vote even in the face of a segregationist system that wanted to make it impossible.
The event led to the passage of Civil Rights Act that prohibited both racial and sexual discrimination in employment and public institutions.
