Marian Anderson sings at the Lincoln Memorial
From the Reflecting Pool the camera turns to the lectern, where Marian Anderson, named by the caption, sings in a broad-brimmed hat and patterned dress among marshals in white caps and guests; between her phrases it finds the listeners: a young man in dark glasses beside a young woman in a striped dress, families on the grass, the seated statue of Lincoln inside the memorial. In 1939, refused the use of Constitution Hall, Anderson had sung on these same steps before 75,000 people; twenty-four years later she stood there again.
