About 300 Persons Turn Out For Rights Rally And March Here
Description
This newspaper clipping describes a Freedom Rally sponsored by the Student Non-Violent Co-Ordinating Committee (SNCC) of over 300 community members marching from City Hall to the First Method Church near the University of Michigan’s Central Campus. This event, which featured John Lewis, was to precipitate the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom that would take place the following day in Washington D.C.. At the start of the event, the SNCC was joined by demonstrators of the Ann Arbor Fair Housing Association - CORE who were continuing their advocacy for fair housing.
