“There is nothing
more powerful
to dramatize an injustice
like the
tramp,
tramp,
tramp
of marching feet.”
Martin Luther King, Jr., June 7, 1966, at a rally in
Memphis, Tennessee, during the March Against Fear
THE LAST GREAT WALK OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AND THE EMERGENCE OF BLACK POWER
Countless supporters joined James Meredith (center, wearing pith helmet and grasping walking stick) for the final hike of the March Against Fear, June 26, 1966, to the Mississippi State Capitol in Jackson, including civil rights movement leaders Martin Luther King, Jr. (left of Meredith, arm linked with wife Coretta), Stokely Carmichael (right of Meredith, wearing overalls), and Floyd McKissick (right of Carmichael).
