Yesterday was an historic day in American history in Selma, Alabama. The "Bloody Sunday March" happened 44 years ago. I actually lived and worked in Selma, Alabama in 1994 and was taking pictures of the Edmund Pettus bridge when Rosa Parks showed up at the Voting Rights Museum at the foot of the bridge. I actually met and shook her hand!
Here are 5 galleries that were taken last year when I had a layover in Selma, Alabama.
