This paper will explore the impact of the Civil Rights Movement on American society through the social event of the Selma to Montgomery marches. The resulting song title, "Glory" by John Legend and Common, encapsulates the struggle and triumph of the movement. The lyrics of the song utilize powerful literary devices such as metaphors, allusions, and juxtaposition to convey the themes of justice, unity, and resilience. Through an analysis of these elements, this paper will demonstrate how music can be a powerful tool for social change and activism.
