March On Washington D.C. August 28, 1963

Poster “March On Washington D.C. August 28, 1963″  Train going from my Newark, New Jersey NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People c.1909)

I found  this in the attic of my grandma’s house. I was 5 years old at the time and I remember the event was like a Great Big Party!!!! I had never really experienced white and black people mixing together like that. I recall everybody crying.
