The reason why activists crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge near Selma, Alabama was to demand voting rights.

<h3>Why was there a protest at Edmund Pettus Bridge?</h3>

The South had come up with ways to deny African Americans voting rights since the end of Reconstruction.

The protest at Edmund Pettus Bridge where protesters crossed the bridge, was one of several ways that activists tried to get the right for African Americans to vote.

<h3>Did Selma forget about Pettus Bridge?</h3>

Alabama senator Edmund Winston Pettus served in the late 19th century. He was also a former commander of the Confederacy and the Grand Dragon of the Alabama chapter of the Ku Klux Klan. Did Selma simply forget about the contentious past, then?
