Title: Selma march underway at long last.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-32321 SELMA MARCH UNDERWAY AT LONG LAST SELMA, Ala. -- This aerial view shows a half-mile long column of civil rights demonstrators -- including many clergy -- on the first leg of a 50-mile march to Montgomery, the state capital, in support of the Negro voter registration drive. The marchers -- an estimate 3,500 left Selma -- are shown crossing the Pettus Bridge, where the first scheduled freedom march was broken up by state troopers on Sunday, March 7. This time, the march was authorized by a federal court and was protected by Army and federalized Alabama National Guard troops.

At the end of the five-day march along U.S. Highway 80, Negro leaders hoped to present a civil rights petition to Gov. George C. Wallace, who earlier declined to protect the demonstrators.
