Thank you so much for this video clip. I was not born yet. My mom was like eleven years old. I am an immigrnat, I took a semester of US history for my citizenship but I did not learn or know about this particular event. It made me tear up when you mentioned that they walked for four days and the people who got killed alone the way. May God bless all of those who have pave the way for the common good peacefullly without braking / destroying others property. Viva Cristo Rey. May MLK rest in peace.
Thank you soo much dave stotts at the beginning of the dr king series on youtube, i mentioned selma they made a movie on it me and dad watched it its really cool that john lewis and the first african american president could walk the edmund pettus bridge together showing their rememberance of that day, even john lewis was injured during that march,dad also liked the rosa parks movie i really miss him,ihave alot of questions since my dads lost so im getting a book called ghost have warm hands based on a true story,but thanks dave for being so imformative
Thank you Dave! I have enjoyed watching many episodes of Drive Thru History. I especially enjoyed reading the New Testament and watching the Gospels series followed by the Acts to Revelation series. It really made my study come alive.
I was only 8 years old in1965... and not wise to the ways of the evildoers of the day. Now, as a 64 white person, I can see how important those 3 attempts , 5 days, and 50 miles is, and was in our History. But with all the great strides we have made as a society, 57 years later we in many ways we still think with a mind of a child. We still refuse to see that it is our diversity that makes us grow as a society. The 3 Marches of Selma to Montgomery was both sides of the same coin, of how ugly a people can be in forms like segregation, racial injustice . And of how a people, can come together in the form of breaking down walls, coming together for a single cause, and played a major roll of the passage of the U. S. Voting Rights Act of 1965. I want to conclude by saying this: for those in a society that think that history is useless , think long and hard on that conclusion, because without history... man is doomed to repeat it. And this is a VERY TERRIFYING THOUGHT. Please! everyone go to your local library and read the history books of your local town, and other towns, different ERA's. History teaches us so many things; good and bad. But you must read it first. Thank You , for reading to the end.
THANK YOU DAVE! You are always bringing the best and the most needed, and the important things that need to be remembered to our attention in these Last Days! I apologize for that term, but let's admit it, keeping IN GOD'S WORD HERE, WHICH IS YOUR, OUR AND JESUS' POINT ALWAYS, IT JUST BE TIME. So GOD BLESS YOU DAVE, and your team as always, for keeping OUR CONSCIENCE FRESH ON THESE MOST IMPORTANT FACTS. MARANATHA, Brother Dave, And everyone at Cold Water, Walter ☝️✨✝️🌄🔜
Thanks for the information. I was born right in the USA and you are giving me information that I have never heard before. Like for instance the information about the bridge. Sad part about that is I think they should rename the bridge asap. That's so disrespectful in my eyes. Peace be to all and blessings be to the world
The sad thing is they've been going there marching for over fifty years and not improved the city of Selma. I was in that church, reminded me a church I grew up in, what struck me is Selma is a wasteland, but these people have been marching there since before I was born. Why hasn't anything been done to assist the city? Why are there so many burnt out houses? Why are there so many houses boarded up and the city growing in weeds everywhere there isn't a church? I live in Alabama and all these folks should be ashamed of themselves for not doing anything more effective for the preservation of the city of Selma. They march and do nothing for the city they get national coverage marching out of.
