In response to discrimination in voter registration policies, a five-day, 54-mile march along an
Alabama highway is led by King (in white cap), Coretta King, James Bevel, John Lewis (behind and
to right), and Ivanhoe Donaldson (below flagpole), with Andrew Young and James Orange (far left).
Alabama listeners ponder King's message on his last tour.
Darkness cannot drive out
darkness; only light can do that.
Cowardice asks the question-
is it safe? Expediency asks the
question- is it politic? Vanity
asks the question- is it popular?
But conscience asks the
question- is it right?
