Philip Randolph whose vision and fight for equal economic and social citizenship began in 1941. He first called for a march on Washington in 1941 to press for equal opportunity in employment and the armed forces. He called for an end to segregation and a living wage for every American. Randolph's egalitarian vision of economic and social citizenship is the strong thread running through the full history of the March on Washington Movement. It was a movement of sustained grassroots organizing linked locally to women's groups, unions, and churches across the country. This work delivers a new understanding of this emblematic event and the broader civil rights movement it propelled.--From book jacket. 000693673 61120 $$aMarch on Washington for Jobs and Freedom$$d(1963 :$$cWashington, D.C.) 000693673 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xCivil rights$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000693673 650_0 $$aCivil rights demonstrations$$zWashington (D.C.)$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000693673 650_0 $$aCivil rights movements$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000693673 85200 $$bgen$$hF200$$i.J66$$i2013 000693673 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:693673$$pGLOBAL_SET 000693673 980__ $$aBIB 000693673 980__ $$aBOOK
