A. Philip Randolph before the microphones

Before a group of microphones stands a tall, grey-haired African American man in a dark suit, a badge on his lapel, identified by a caption that reads A. Phillip Randolph; beside him a grey-haired man turns towards him, a young African American man looks down, and white onlookers crowd behind. Randolph, founder of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, had first called for a march on Washington in 1941 and was its director in 1963.
