Joan Baez sings on the stage at the Washington Monument

Seen across a sea of heads, Joan Baez, named by the caption, stands with her guitar at the microphones on the railed stage, photographers and marshals pressing round her; the camera then pans across the crowd that fills the grounds up to the Washington Monument, with long rows of chartered buses beneath the trees. Baez, then twenty-two, sang in the morning programme at the monument, where the marchers gathered before walking to the Lincoln Memorial.
