              1. I visited Selma today and came face to face with the continued economic segregation of the USA. #Selma54 #SelmaJubilee

              This town, which sacrificed so much in the quest for African American voting rights has been economically marginalized ever since it elected its first Black officials. #Selma54 #SelmaJubilee

        Meanwhile, the drug war (assisted by mass unemployment) has taken back the right to vote from many of Selma's residents. #Selma54 #SelmaJubilee

      In short, any visit to Selma that comes out of love for freedom and African American struggle is necessarily a bittersweet one. #SelmaJubilee #Selma54

    To only celebrate in Selma is to look past the local reality, and the continued traumas of Black America. #Selma54 #SelmaJubilee
