On this, the 50th anniversary of the Selma to Montgomery civil rights march, we’ll recall the tunes that black and white civil rights demonstrators sang as they faced beatings, bites from police dogs, jail, and sometimes death.

Bill Cohen and Paisha Thomas will sing the simple songs and invite everyone to sing along. Also featured will be vintage film footage of key triumphs and tragedies of the movement between 1960 and 1965.

Admission is free but donations will be welcomed. Proceeds will go to peace and social justice projects of Church Women United, a group of women from many denominations.
