On March 22, 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the
Beer and Wine Revenue Act. This law levies a federal tax on all
alcoholic beverages to raise revenue for the federal government
and gives individual states the option to further regulate the sale
and distribution of beer and wine.

In the name of African American voting rights, 3,200 civil rights demonstrators in Alabama, led by Martin Luther King Jr., began
an historic march from Selma to Montgomery, the state’s capital. Federalized Alabama National Guardsmen and FBI agents were
on hand to provide safe passage for the march, which twice had
been turned back by Alabama state police at Selma’s Edmund
Pettus Bridge.
