In 1965, sheriff deputies attacked non-violent civil rights protesters in Selma, Alabama, sparking nationwide outrage. Now known as Bloody Sunday, the event was pivotal in the struggle to secure African American voting rights. To mark the 50th anniversary of the attack, thousands of supporters, local Selma residents and President Barack Obama poured into the small Alabama city this past weekend to remember the historic events
