Last week the critically-acclaimed film “Selma” received a Best Picture Oscar nod, and on Sunday (January 18) the cast assembled in Selma, Alabama for a touching tribute to Martin Luther King Jr.
Oprah Winfrey, John Legend, Common, David Oyelowo and Ava DuVernay hosted the historic march to honor the late civil rights figure.
Common tweeted photos and video footage from the event, adding, "Honored to be performing #Glory w/ @johnlegend in Selma on this great weekend. #History.” Legend added, "Today in Selma was so humbling... I had the honor of performing #Glory with @common and the Tuskegee University Gospel Choir on the Pettis Bridge in Selma today. Thank you to the people of Selma who welcomed us into your town. We enjoyed ourselves immensely."
