ASALH: Association for the Study of African American Life and History

On this day, March 7, 1965, “Bloody Sunday” shocked the nation—what happened on the Edmund Pettus Bridge, and how did Amelia Boynton Robinson play a pivotal role in this historic event?“Bloody Sunday” occurred when hundreds of peaceful demonstrators attempted to march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama, to demand voting rights for Black Americans. As they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge, they were brutally attacked by state troopers and sheriff’s deputies using clubs, tear gas, and whips. The violent assault, broadcast across the country, outraged Americans and fueled support for the Civil Rights Movement.Among the marchers was Amelia Boynton Robinson, a longtime voting rights activist and one of the march’s key organizers. She was beaten unconscious, and a haunting photograph of her lying on the ground became one of the most powerful images of the movement. Boynton Robinson had spent years fighting for Black suffrage, even running for Congress in 1964 as the first Black woman to do so in Alabama.Her courage and sacrifice helped lead to the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, a landmark law that dismantled many barriers to Black voter registration. Amelia Boynton Robinson’s legacy continues to inspire the ongoing fight for justice and democracy. ... See MoreSee Less
