Reflecting on the powerful civil rights anthem, "Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around" in this edition we examine an iconic moment in American history - the courageous march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama known as “Bloody Sunday.” As Civil Rights leader John Lewis and fellow marchers endeavor to cross the bridge they encounter brutal resistance from Alabama state troopers.
Featured excerpts from former Georgia congressman John Lewis, who dedicated his life to the principles of equality and justice, which often led him to the front lines of protests, where he faced violence and arrest with unwavering resolve. Through firsthand accounts and archival footage we examine John Lewis's remarkable legacy and reflect on the profound impact of his leadership on the Civil Rights Movement.
