Title: Signs of the past.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: Suggested for use in connection with Brotherhood Week, Feb. 20-27 PC-49290 SIGNS OF THE PAST Like the Birmingham, Alabama, store they are located on, “colored” and “white” entrances have been abandoned in this country. But signs of the recent past such as these still remain to remind Americans that there is a long way to go towards achieving mutual respect. Brotherhood Week, a program of the National Conference of Christians and Jews in cooperation with schools, churches and synagogues, civic, service and community organizations, serves to remind us that “Brotherhood Begins with Respect.” Brotherhood Week will be observed for the 44th time from Feb. 20-27.
