The March

This short film runs for 33 minutes and features prominent civil rights leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr., John Lewis, and Joan Baez. It highlights the struggle against racial segregation and the fight for human rights during a critical period in American history.

Produced by the United States Information Agency, The March was specifically created for international audiences, as domestic screenings were restricted under the Smith-Mundt Act until 1990. The film's significance was recognized in 2008 when it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress. This recognition underscores the documentary's importance in American cultural and historical contexts.
