60 years ago today, in Selma, Alabama, marchers for civil rights were stopped, beaten, and tear gassed by law enforcement and by a “deputized” white mob.
Some of the younger marchers— teenagers at the time — will be marching again this Sunday.
It’s not hyperbole to say that we could soon see similar state violence against demonstrators. The tRump admin is proudly heading in that direction.
