What were the 3 marches on Montgomery?

The three marches on Montgomery were significant events during the Civil Rights Movement in 1965, aimed at demanding voting rights for African Americans. The first march, on March 7, known as "Bloody Sunday," ended violently when marchers were brutally confronted by police at the Edmund Pettus Bridge. The second march, led by Martin Luther King Jr., was turned back in a tactical decision, while the third march, starting on March 21 and concluding on March 25, successfully reached Montgomery with federal protection and garnered national attention, ultimately leading to the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
