As some of you may know, in 2013 NBC News provided some student-journalists from Ithaca College with an incredible opportunity when we partnered with them to cover the 50th Anniversary of The March on Washington. Well, this weekend I will accompany six student-journalists from Ithaca College as we travel to Alabama to cover the 50th Anniversary of Bloody Sunday - the first attempt by Civil Rights marchers to cross the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma. We will be covering the weekend's events for NBC Nightly News and NBCnews.com<http://nbcnews.com/> In addition, on Sunday March 8th, we will stream live coverage of the march reenactment through one of NBC's online web platforms. You can watch the live stream at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEL8OIDUL5w And you can follow us the entire weekend on twitter: #icparkselma50 Regards JR ******************************************** James A.
