The 56th Anniversary Selma Bridge Crossing Jubilee, the largest annual civil rights event in the nation, is scheduled to take place March 5-7 as we honor the past, examine the present and look forward to the future of the fight for equity and justice. This year’s theme is:

Beyond the Bridge: People Power, Political Power, Economic Power

This epic undertaking is making history in a brand new way by going global and virtual for the first time ever! The Jubilee will be a time of celebration, education, and commemoration, with activities for people of all ages -- and the entire weekend is designed for you to stay engaged, stay safe, and log in from anywhere in the world.

You won’t want to miss:

  • Special appearances by legendary civil rights leaders, Ambassador Andrew Young and Dolores Huerta
  • A tribute to the late Congressman John Lewis
  • Powerful stories of Foot Soldiers in the movement, in their own words
  • Step Show and Battle of the Bands Competitions
  • A soul-stirring Gospel Concert
  • Virtual Music and Film Festivals
