Alabama this weekend is marking the 60th anniversary of a key event in the civil rights movement, when voting rights marchers were attacked in Selma on March 7, 1965.

The population of the small historic town of Selma, Alabama swells once a year as people from around the nation flock to its downtown, its churches before finally gathering for the crescendo event -- walking across the Edmund Pettus Bridge.

Edgar Moore, 74, pointed to where Alabama State Troopers met him and other Bloody Sunday marchers 60 years ago.
