In class, when I watched the first part of the movie "Selma" the part that touched me the most was when MLK and other protesters were demonstrating in front of the building where Americans could vote. I find it interesting how white men tried everything to make black people look bad, they protested peacefully but the white sherif pushed them to their limits by arresting a woman for defending a fellow protester. However it was a good way to attract the press and MLK and his colleagues got what they wanted; they made it to the front page of a newspaper with a bad image of the sherif. They never gave up to achieve their goal of black men and women to vote in southern states especially in Alabama.
What part of the movie did you find most interesting?
