On Sunday, March 7, 1965, Martin Luther King Jr. and six hundred followers set out on foot from Selma, Alabama, bound for Montgomery to demand greater voting rights for African Americans. As they crossed the city’s Edmund Pettus Bridge, state and local policemen savagely set on the marchers with tear gas and billy clubs, an event now known as “Bloody Sunday” that would become one of the most iconic in American history.
 
King’s informal headquarters in Selma was the home of Dr. Sullivan and Richie Jean Sherrod Jackson and their young daughter, Jawana. The House by the Side of the Road is Richie Jean’s firsthand account of the private meetings King and his lieutenants, including Ralph David Abernathy and John Lewis, held in the haven of the Jackson home.
 
Sullivan Jackson was an African American dentist in Selma and a prominent supporter of the civil rights movement. Richie Jean was a close childhood friend of King’s wife, Coretta Scott King, a native of nearby Marion, Alabama. Richie Jean’s fascinating account narrates how, in the fraught months of 1965 that preceded the Voting Rights March, King and his inner circle held planning sessions and met with Assistant Attorney General John Doar to negotiate strategies for the event.
 
Just eight days after Bloody Sunday, President Lyndon Johnson made a televised addressed to a joint session of Congress on Monday, March 15. Jackson relates the intimate scene of King and his lieutenants watching as Johnson called the nation to dedicate itself to equal rights for all and ending his address with the words: “We shall overcome.” Five months later, Congress passed the 1965 Voting Rights Act on August 6.

Wire as advertised, but shorted on the length.
Size: 2 Colors each 10FT, Style: 22AWG
No concern with the wire quality at first glance, but the pieces were 6-8" short.

Good Quality
Size: 2 Colors each 10FT, Style: 22AWG
Good quality wire. Doesn't fail and break after only a few bends or twists like most cheap wire. The silicone insulator is great for flexibility in tight spaces like guitar electronics cavities. I'm constantly trying out new part and pickups and found that some cheaper wires were often failing due to being moved around all the time.

Great wire
Size: 2 Colors each 10FT, Style: 22AWG
I needed a flexible durable wire to fix an old model train. It worked perfect. Wire is generally wire. If you require all the special features of this wire it will meet all your needs

Great connectors
Size: 5 pairs
Just finished an overhaul on the stereo system. A couple decks needed new belts and the wife wanted a new cabinet for everything so just take it all apart and refresh. I ordered these plugs to make the backside wiring a bit neater . They are very well made and easy to install if you mess up the polarity just swap the arrel covers, easy peasy. Great quality and easy assembly. Did it improve the sound? Can't say that I noticed that but it is certainly as good and so much easier to connect speaker outputs. I would certainly buy again.
