The procession formed at the Lutheran Church of the Reformation, where services urging an end to racial injustice were being held daily, and stopped briefly at the U.S. Supreme Court building for prayers commemorating the 10th anniversary of the decision against public school segregation. The procession, which was followed by visits to Senators, was organized by the National Council of Churches’ Commission on Religion and Race.
