N\u00ed Loingsigh.<\/p>\n<p>Recently the fifth year History students went to the cinema to see <em>Selma<\/em>. I thought the film was a good source of information on the Selma to Montgomery march in 1965. The march and the Civil Rights Movement are a Case-Study on the Leaving Cert History course and as such they make a regular appearance on the exam papers. In addition Martin Luther King and President Lyndon B. Johnson are Key Personalities on the same course. The film focused on \u00a0King and his attempts to gain voting rights for blacks. The film was a little biased towards King and LBJ was portrayed merely as an obstacle in his way. The hard fight that blacks endured to gain the vote was shown however the portrayal of whites was not one-sided. They were shown as both enemies and friends of the Civil Rights Movement. The film helped me acquire a deeper understanding of Race Relations in America in the 1960s.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Aisling Nic C\u00e1rthaigh, Cill Dara &amp; E.
