Two bloody Sundays

civil rights in America and Ireland
This book explores the legacy of the "Bloody Sunday" protests. The first protest occurred in 1965 in Selma, Alabama, when African Americans marched for the right to vote. In 1972, Catholics in Derry, Northern Ireland, also marched against injustice in their own country. Both days ended in bloodshed and became known as Bloody Sunday.
