"I’d never been afraid of anything...But I knew something awful was going on. I knew it was dangerous for me to be on that bus." In 1961, Magnum's Bruce Davidson joined a group of Freedom Riders traveling by bus from Montgomery, Alabama, to Jackson, Mississippi. The actions of the Riders tested federal laws permitting integrated interstate bus travel. These trips, which ended in violence and arrests, marked the beginning of Davidson’s visual exploration of the Civil Rights Movement in 1960s America. With the recent protests and outrage in wake of the failed indictment of both the police officer involved in the death of Missouri's Michael Brown, and the police officer involved in the death of New York's Eric Garner, some of the photographs Davidson made a half a century ago feel simultaneously distant but relevant, foreign but familiar. Here is a photograph of arrests being made during a 1963 protest in Alabama, viewable in Davidson's 2002 book, "Time of Change: Civil Rights Photographs, 1961-1965".
