President Obama Speaks in Selma 

At 12:15 p.m. EST, the President will deliver remarks at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, marking the 50th anniversary of the marches from Selma to Montgomery.

These marches helped ensure that African Americans could exercise their constitutional right to vote, and led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Weekly Address: Let Girls Learn 

In this week's address, the President discussed an issue close to his heart: education for adolescent girls around the world.

Earlier this week, he and the First Lady announced "Let Girls Learn," a whole-of-government initiative that will build on investments we have made and successes we have achieved in global primary school education, and expand them to help adolescent girls complete their education and pursue their broader aspirations.

62 million girls around the world -- half of whom are adolescent -- are not in school and therefore have diminished economic opportunities. Yet when a girl receives a quality education, she is more likely to earn a decent living, raise a healthy, educated family, and improve the quality of life for herself, her family, and her community. That's why the President and First Lady have made addressing this problem a priority because every girl has so much to offer to the world, and no girl should be denied her chance to learn.
