Review C
Dear Sir or Madam:
The media coordinator at Central High School suggested that I write to you; she explained that Hampton has an extensive collection of materials on African American history. For my history class I am preparing an oral report on the March on Washington of August 28, 1963; and if possible, I would like to display pictures of the march.
I am particularly interested in pictures of the following speakers: Floyd McKissick, John Lewis, Roy Wilkins, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. I would also like pictures showing the size and diversity of the crowed; for example, a shot of the marchers filling the area around the Reflecting Pool between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument would be especially effective. Either prints or slides would be useful; however, I would prefer slides if they are available.
My grandfather, who took part in the march, vividly remembers these words of Dr. King: “Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.” Grandfather took several rolls of film himself that day; unfortunately, the pictures were lost in a fire a few years ago.
Please send me information on ordering copies of suitable pictures; a stamped, self-addressed envelope is enclosed. Thank you for your help; I appreciate your attention to my request.
Sincerely,
Jesse Fletcher
