In this March 7, 1965 file photo, tear gas fumes fill the air as state troopers, ordered by Alabama Gov. George Wallace, break up a demonstration march in Selma, on what is known as Bloody Sunday. A new march, led by Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., began March 21 and arrived in Montgomery on March 25, with the crowd swelling to 25,000 by the time they reached the Capitol.
