The Second March from Selma to Montgomery was banned by Federal District Court Judge Frank Minis Johnson when, after the marchers attemptede to gain a court order to prevent police interference, he issued a restraining order preventing the march from happening, until he could hold additional hearing later in the week.
The march leaders stood by this restraining order, knowing that he would lift it later and not wanting to upset one of the few southern judges who was often sympathetic to their cause.
I don't remember an "incident" inspiring the march. My memory is that it was a protest march over Alabama making it difficult for black people to vote. The voting rights act had been passed recently but Alabama was still resisting.

Television played a huge part in the success of the march from Selma to Montgomery. This is because more people saw the march than could have ever been seen without world-wide television. This way, people knew of what was happening in Alabama.
1.) There were a bunch of people who attended it. 2.) Martin Luther King Jr. was the leader. 3.) They traveled from Selma to Montgomery.
John Lewis is remembered for the Selma to Montgomery marches and March on Washington for Jobs and freedom of 1963.
