The Selma to Montgomery marches were protest marches organized in 1965. These marches involved thousands of people walking from Selma, Alabama to the capital of Montgomery.

The main purpose of the marches was to protest and bring attention to the problem of segregation and repression of African Americans. By marching, African Americans wanted to show their desire to exercise their rights, including the right to vote.

The marches were significant to the civil rights movement because they allowed people to raise awareness of the problems of segregation. They also led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 by President Lyndon B. Johnson.
