EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures a significant moment in the civil rights movement of the 1960s. The image features three prominent civil rights lawyers, Medgar Evers, Constance Baker Motley, and Jack Greenberg, sitting together at a press conference held in September 1962. They are seen discussing James Meredith's groundbreaking lawsuit against the University of Mississippi. Medgar Evers was an influential African American activist and attorney who fought tirelessly for racial equality. Constance Baker Motley, another remarkable figure in the struggle for civil rights, was known for her legal expertise and dedication to justice. Jack Greenberg, also an attorney with a strong commitment to social change, played a crucial role as part of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. The significance of this photograph lies not only in capturing these remarkable individuals but also in symbolizing their collective efforts to challenge segregation and discrimination within educational institutions. Their work paved the way for equal access to education for all students regardless of race or background. Taken by Granger Art on Demand from Granger Collection based in New York City (NYC), this print serves as a reminder of the bravery and determination exhibited by those who fought relentlessly for civil rights during one of America's most transformative eras.
