This movie gives those of us who did not live through this period a real glimpse of history. I think the actor's did well and the story line was great.

This movie helped my family and myself learn more about what the times of segregation were like and really touched our hearts greatly.

"Selma" explores the racially turbulent years 1964-1965 as black people stood up for their right to vote. The systematic persecution and injustice of black people was going unanswered and this was largely due to black people being deliberately kept out of the democratic process. In this dramatization of MLK and company, the film explores the tactics used by the civil rights leader and his associates to peacefully fight for their right to vote. The film also serves as a dark mirror in 21st century America, that while great strides have been made in the struggle for justice and equality for people of color, the resisters of equality for all are still ever present today to voice their innate superiority beliefs. As an avid lover of films depicting the struggle of black people in America, I highly recommend you add this film to your collection.
