EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures a pivotal moment in American history, as a man stands on the steps of the iconic Lincoln Memorial during a Black Panther convention in Washington, D. C. on June 19,1970. The image, taken by either Warren K. Leffler or Thomas J. O Halloran, showcases the determination and resilience of African Americans who were fighting for their rights and equality. The man in the photo holds a banner high above his head, boldly displaying his support for the Black Panther movement. His stance exudes strength and conviction as he stands before one of America's most revered symbols of freedom and justice. Wearing a cap with a strap under his chin to secure it against any disturbance caused by political acts around him, this protester is adorned with late 70s fashion choices like moustache and hat that further highlight his identity as an individual willing to challenge societal norms. As we gaze at this image today, we are reminded of the radical activism that characterized this era - when marginalized communities fought tirelessly against systemic oppression. This photograph serves as both a testament to their struggle and an inspiration for future generations to continue pushing for social change. Preserved by The Granger Collection's archives, this print allows us to reflect upon our nation's complex history while acknowledging those who bravely stood up for what they believed in at such an important time in American civil rights movements.
