60 years ago in Selma, Alabama, state troopers beat peaceful protesters bloody on the Edmund Pettus Bridge as they marched for civil rights. The horror of "Bloody Sunday" and the resilience of the Civil Rights Movement ultimately led to the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act and many of the landmark achievements that are now directly under attack. As civil rights activists look to history to understand -- and prepare for -- the present, Laura walks the Bridge and talks with, among others, Sheyann Webb Christburg, who marched at the age of eight, Black Voters Matter co-founders LaTosha Brown and Clifford Albright; law professor and author Kimberle Crenshaw and Maya Wiley, President and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. What does people power look like today? Plus, a commentary from Laura on name calling then and now. "We're not going to phone bank our way out of this. We're not going to text our way out of this. And in truth, we're not even going to vote our way out of this . . . It's going to take revisiting some of the same strategies that we saw here in Selma, in terms of nonviolent civil disobedience and direct action." - Clifford Albright "When we see and hear and think about fascism, we think about anti-democratic movements in Europe. We think about the Holocaust . . . But for Black people, as Langston Hughes said, you don't have to explain to us what fascism is. We experienced it. That is what we were fighting, for the 60, 70 years after Reconstruction was overthrown." - Kimberle Crenshaw "We're seeing a bill that the Republicans are supporting right now that will cut $800 million from Medicaid. What we're seeing is the demonized poor people and working class folks. But we're gonna stop . . . We are literally gonna stand on the space that if we are the wealthiest in the world, then we need to be the healthiest in the world." - LaTosha Brown Guests: Clifford Albright: Co-Founder & Executive Director, Black Voters Matter; Willard and Kiba Armstead: Veteran & Spouse; Trayvon Bossa: Sigma Chapter Member, Miles College Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity; LaTosha Brown: Co-Founder, Black Voters Matter; Kimberle Crenshaw: Co-Founder & Executive Director, African American Policy Forum; Noelle Damico: Director of Social Justice, The Workers Circle; Melinda Hicks: Child, Spouse & Mother of Veteran; Jaribu Hill: Executive Director & Founder, Mississippi Workers' Center for Human Rights; Myla Person: High School Sophomore, Columbus, Georgia; Ann Toback: CEO, The Workers Circle Sheyann Webb Christburg: Youngest Participant,1965 Bloody Sunday March; Maya Wiley: President & CEO, Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights.

In the Jewish tradition, T'shuvah means "return" and describes the return to God and our fellow human beings made possible through repentance for our wrongs. Tony McAleer is a former skinhead and Holocaust denier who went on to become a founding member of the anti-hate activist group Life After Hate. Profoundly aware and deeply ashamed of the lineage of hate he'd once promoted, Tony had long contemplated traveling to Auschwitz in the spirit of T'shuvah - to bear witness to the inconceivable ravages of the Holocaust and deepen his work against the rise of extremist politics. THE CURE FOR HATE documents his personal journey of atonement to Auschwitz-Birkenau while exploring the conditions that allowed for the rise of fascism in 1930s Europe. It also sheds light on how men get into and out of violent extremist groups and serves as a timely cautionary tale that underscores the dangers of allowing hate to be left unchecked.
