"They Say that Freedom is a Constant Struggle": 45th Anniversary of the Selma-Montgomery March

This week marks the 45th Anniversary of the Selma to Montgomery March (March 21-25).  In commemoration, I thought it was more than fitting to post this very moving video.  Watch. Listen. Reflect. Remember. As the true patriot Frederick Douglass once said, "Power concedes nothing without a demand, it never did and it never will."

Peace and respect to the memory to those that sacrificed to make this nation live up to its founding documents. Each of us owes them a great debt for their courage.
