The song Time Brings About A Change is featured in the Golden Globe nominated film Selma, starring Oprah Winfrey, Cuba Gooding Jr., David Oyelowo and Common. The film chronicles the tumultuous three-month period in 1965, when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. led a dangerous campaign to secure equal voting rights in the face of violent opposition. The epic march from Selma to Montgomery culminated in President Johnson signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965, one of the most significant victories for the civil rights movement.
