In the center of the image stands Martin Luther King Jr. with outstretched arms behind a podium with multiple microphones. Around him crowd participants, clergy, and marshals in white caps with armbands who ensured the orderly conduct of the rally. The photograph was taken on August 28, 1963 at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., where King delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech. The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom is considered one of the highlights of the U.S. civil rights movement and combined demands for equal civil rights with those for jobs and social justice. The still image documents the close personal and organizational interweaving of speakers’ platform, clergy, and marshal service at one of the largest peaceful mass demonstrations in U.S. history.
