"One day's commemoration however special is not enough." How about cleaning up blight at foot of Pettus Bridge for a start? #Selma50

I was so enamored with being on the media riser when Obama gave that speech in Selma, I didn't hear all of his words. I was also focusing on my shots. It was one of my most historic ventures participating in the #Selma50

It was the 50th Anniversary of Bloody Sunday, March 7, 2015, when I captured these images as a part of the White House press pool. What a wonderful, historic memory at the foot of the Edmund Pettus Bridge

@millennial.swifties.social you said financial boycotts don’t work. Are you familiar with the Selma Montgomery bus and financial boycotts in the 1960’s? www.oprah.com/selma50/selm...

What I didn't hear is any acknowledgement of the work young activists ARE putting in. "'I have a dream' of 21st century" my ass. #Selma50

I heard "Young people need to remember Selma and stop being angry because it's better but not really but kinda." #Selma50

I heard Obama wagging the finger at "young people" who don't vote within a $-driven political system they justifiably do not trust. #Selma50

Overheard Douglas Brinkley on CNN saying Obama's safe ass speech at #Selma50 was the "I Have A Dream" speech for the 21st century. GTFOH.
