What was the response of civil rights leaders to Bloody Sunday?

On "Bloody Sunday," March 7, 1965, some 600 civil rights marchers headed east out of Selma on U.S. Route 80. They got only as far as the Edmund Pettus Bridge six blocks away, where state and local lawmen attacked them with billy clubs and tear gas and drove them back into Selma.

we pointed them north: recollections of a cowpuncher by e.c. “teddy blue” abbott tells us of the history of nomad cowboys in north america. as the   frontiers began moving west, trails of cowboys of the 1870s and ’80s drove herds of cattle from texas to the northern ranges and railheads, and then rode back south to do it again. they gradually pushed   native americans out of their lands, until in 1889 the   government transferred white   colonists the indian land.
