Martin Luther King, above, center, and SNCC leader John Lewis, right, on Selma to Montgomery march after crossing Edmund Pettus Bridge March 21, 1965. Left, “Bloody Sunday,” March 7, when Lewis was severely beaten at bridge. Pettus was a Confederate general and Klan leader. In 2015, Lewis opposed efforts to rename the bridge, saying it “symbolizes both who we once were, and who we have become.”
