Washington Civil rights icon and US Democratic Rep. John Lewis of Georgia will attend a "Bloody Sunday" commemorative march in Selma, Alabama, on Sunday, his chief of staff Michael Collins told CNN.

Lewis, who had his skull broken by white police officers during the 1965 march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer in December. At the time, Lewis said he would undergo treatment for the cancer, and speculation swirled about whether the longtime congressman would be able to participate in the 55th anniversary march.
