The March

The March is a movie documentary, which focused on the 1963 March on Washington and the plight of Martin Luther King Jr. and all of his supporters. The movie was voiced over by Denzel Washington, which gave it a more powerful feel. This movie gave a deeper background into the groups of people that supported the march.

I realized the immense impact that college students and other people my age had on the march. Even more than that, how much of an impact they all had on the Civil Rights Movement in general. People of all ages and backgrounds came together to support and stand behind the March on Washington and the Civil Rights Movement. 

The movie was chockfull with footage of MLK Jr. and other Civil Rights leaders, which made very powerful statements. I think this documentary still can move the hearts of people in our nation today. The national debate of civil rights has dwindled in recent years, this movie could help spark the fire again.
