The Selma to Montgomery march was part of a series of civil rights protests that occurred in 1965 in Alabama, a Southern state with deeply entrenched racist policies. In March of that year, in an effort to register Black voters in the South, protesters marching the 54-mile route from Selma to the state capital of Montgomery were confronted with deadly violence from local authorities and white vigilante groups. As the world watched, the protesters—under the protection of federalized National Guard troops—finally achieved their goal, walking around the clock for three days to reach Montgomery, Alabama. The historic march, and Martin Luther King, Jr.’s participation in it, raised awareness of the difficulties faced by Black voters, and the need for a national Voting Rights Act. :amerikkka:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/vegan/comments/lctkbn/friendly_reminder_to_any_new_sub_members_that/gm301mf/ Yeah uh, I have a feeling that the VCJ mods are wreckers against left unity for more than just one reason here. (This here is a VCJ mod saying that they ban "tankies")

      Meh, can we not? I think we have to treat our green comrades better rn, as even old accounts were lashing out. Vcj is irrelevant (if we don’t try to onboard them again).

      Edit: I mean bringing it into mega thread at all, here is a place for life shitposting, not reiterating some beefs

        Well yeah, obviously the other vegan users here who had problems were in good faith. Just that VCJ ones (the main ones causing issues) were clearly not here for good. I stand by our Vegan comrades, just not our VCJ ones.
