Michael Goldfarb examines the protest march as a force for change.

For hundreds of years the protest march has been a means of voicing passionate concerns.

While some mass demonstrations have ended in victory, others have led to retreat, defeat and sometimes tragedy. Defying the authorities can be a dangerous business.

In this two-part documentary, Michael Goldfarb examines the protest march as a force for change.
