- Title
- UPCUSA Civil Rights demonstration.
- Description
- New York--A peaceful pre-Independence Day demonstration for racial equality was held by some 500 clergymen and members of the United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. The placard-carrying demonstrators marched for 45 minutes in a City Hall Plaza area, then heard addresses by Mayor Robert F. Wagner, center, and Dr. W. Eugene Houston, left, a Harlem pastor who heads the presbytery's new commission on religion and race. The Mayor called for enactment of President Kennedy's civil rights proposals and pledged continuing efforts toward greater racial equality in New York City. Dr. Houston warned against the city "dragging its feet"on integration and called for acceleration of school desegregation.

The project to “feed the multitude” of hungry marchers was sponsored by the National Council of Churches’ Commission on Religion and Race. At top, Dr. Robert W. Spike, executive director of the commission, and Dr. Anna Arnold Hedgeman, NCC coordinator of March activities, dedicate the lunches “for the nourishment of thousands” who went to Washington “to say with their bodies and souls that ‘we shall overcome,’” racial injustice. In the bottom photo, some of more than 400 volunteers -- Catholics and Jews as well as Protestants -- assemble the lunches. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (1-NY-8E-63-NBM)

Here, members of the Boston, Mass., chapter of CORE march in the shadow of the Unisphere, the fair’s symbol.

The project to “feed the multitude” of hungry marchers was sponsored by the National Council of Churches’ Commission on Religion and Race. At top, Dr. Robert W. Spike, executive director of the commission, and Dr. Anna Arnold Hedgeman, NCC coordinator of March activities, dedicate the lunches “for the nourishment of thousands” who went to Washington “to say with their bodies and souls that ‘we shall overcome,’” racial injustice. In the bottom photo, some of more than 400 volunteers -- Catholics and Jews as well as Protestants -- assemble the lunches. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (1-NY-8E-63-NBM)
