Join MSU Libraries for a pop-up exhibition to highlight historical marches and commemorate the anniversary of the March on Washington.

The exhibition showcases a collection of 40 protest posters compiled at the 57th anniversary of the March on Washington in 1963.

At the original March on Washington, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his seminal I Have a Dream speech in front of 260,000 people, stemming from a rapidly growing tide of grassroot support and outrage over the nation’s racial inequalities. In 2020, the nation marched once again under the Black Lives Matter social movement that aimed to also highlight racism, discrimination and racial inequality experienced by African Americans and to promote anti-racism. The primary concerns were police brutality, and racially motivated violence against African Americans.
