Bloody Sunday.
Explanation:
- The Montgomery march, three marches from Selma to Montgomery in 1965, led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act, a significant success of the African American Civil Rights Movement. All three protest marches were attempts to walk along the 54-mile long highway from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama.
- The Voting Rights Movement in Selma was started by local African-Americans, who formed the Dallas County Voter Association. Together with the organizers of the Student Nonviolent Organizing Committee, they began registering black voters since 1964. When the resistance of whites turned out to be persistent, the Alliance addressed Martin Luther King and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, which brought many prominent figures to Selma in January 1965. leaders of the civil rights movement.
- The following month, Jimmy Lee Jackson, a suffrage activist, was fatally shot during a march in Marion, which inflated community tensions. To quell and direct anger, James Bevel Student Committee director, who campaigned in Selma and worked on his Alabama voting rights project since late 1964, called for a dramatic march from Selma to Montgomery.
- The first march occurred on March 7, 1965; it was nicknamed Bloody Sunday after 600 protesters attacked state and local police with batons and tear gas. The second march occurred on March 9; police and protesters stood in front of each other, but when police moved to let the protesters pass, King brought them back to the church.
- The third march began on March 21st. With the protection of 2,000 U.S. Army members, 1,900 Alabama National Guard members under federal commander and numerous FBI agents and federal marshals, protesters traveled 16 miles a day along U.S. Route 80, known in Alabama as Jefferson Davis Highway. Protesters arrived in Montgomery on March 24, and before the Alabama State Capitol on March 25.

Both were fighting against a monarchy that they saw as unfair. They also both disliked the idea of an aristocracy and wanted to reestablish their governments. Also, Americans and the French both very much disliked the British at this time.
The Mayans loved there Gods so they put those beliefs into there homes and everyday lives. On the walls of temples and simple structures they would draw pictures of the Gods and serpents that are dead to show triumph. They also had many simple weapons such as spears.. and around the large cities they would have 4 large stone walls that protected them from intruders. Hope that helped!
The argument against slavery could be considered a lot of different things. Today slavery in the United States has been abolished and is seen as inhumane. Unfortunately, however, farther back into the time prior to the ratification of the 13th amendment to end slavery, it was a popular way for farmers in the South to make lots of money. From the very beginning, Slaves were taken from Africa against their will to work and live with their new owners in America. Slaves were considered cheap labor and they helped farmers become rich by harvesting cash crops. A lot of the farmers in the South did not care about treating the slaves properly. They usually only cared about making money. Plantation owners in the south, were primarily white, rich men, and it was not uncommon for slave owners to own more than 20 slaves on their plantation. Even following the ratification of the 13th amendment, the battle for civil rights continued through the 1900's. It even still exists today. When people of the South lost a part of their 'Culture' they grew angry and began discriminating against African Americans which led to the creation of Jim Crow laws.The laws were used as loopholes to keep the African American's from gaining voting rights and being accepted in public and even in society as the free individuals they deserved to be. Although not explicitly written in the constitution, until the inclusion of the 13th amendment under the Bill of Rights (and others too!) people have considered slavery as a violation of our nation's founding principles.
