Many of those who participated in the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom returned home with keepsakes like this poster—one of a series sold by organizers to help defray the event's costs. Designed by artist Louis Lo Monaco, the poster tells a story through collage, bringing together black-and-white photography, bold colors, and the iconic phrase "We Shall Overcome." Held today in 1963, the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom was the largest civil rights demonstration the nation had ever witnessed. One hundred years after the Emancipation Proclamation, an estimated 250,000 Americans gathered to petition the government to pass meaningful civil rights legislation and enforce existing laws establishing racial equality. The march was conceived by A. Philip Randolph, leader of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, coordinated by Bayard Rustin, and supported by almost all the major civil rights organizations and many labor unions and religious organizations. Speakers included Randolph, John Lewis, James Farmer, Walter Reuther, and Martin Luther King Jr., whose "I Have a Dream" speech invoked the hopes of all Americans seeking racial justice. #AmericanHistory #CivilRightsHistory #AfricanAmericanHistory #LaborHistory #ReligiousHistory #ProtestHistory #DCHistory #ArtHistory #Collage #Posters #CivilRightsMovement #FreedomStruggle #AmericanDemocracy #BeyondTheBallot #TheNationWeBuildTogether #NationWeBuildTogether #TDIH #OTD #OnThisDay #TodayInHistory
