Episode description

One of the youngest to march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge, and one of the oldest living survivors of Bloody Sunday tell their stories. Joann Bland was 11 years old when she marched across the Edmund Pettus Bridge, and she is now building footsoldierspark.org. Dr. George Sallies, 92, had no voting rights in 1965, even though he was a Korean War veteran. The force of the billy club’s blow is permanently visible upon his forehead.
