Q Evaluate The concerns surrounding police-minority relations are certainly not a recent phenomenon. In March 1965, police officers met Dr. Martin Luther King and 25,000 peaceful civil rights marchers at the Edmund Pettus Bridge with batons and tear gas in Selma, Alabama which is now known as “Bloody Sunday.” Nearly 50 years later, riots were held in Ferguson, Missouri, in August 2014, following the shooting death of Michael Brown by a white police officer. Protests were also held in Baltimore in 2015 following the in-custody death of Freddie Gray where six police officers were charged with murder. Compare and Contrast Consider the situations that occurred in Ferguson, Missouri and Baltimore, Maryland in light of the events that occurred at Edmund Pettus Bridge. • Analyze the events of "Bloody Sunday" compared to the modern riots; • discuss some of the advancements in efforts to mend police-minority relations within the 50-year span of these events.
