Description

Demonstrators march in front of "Woolworth" store. Protesters carry signs with messages including "This is the land of the free and the home of the brave," "Segregation is America's shame," and "Please be a good American. Don't buy discrimination here." This demonstration followed the arrest of the "Friendship Nine" and one other student, all from Friendship Junior College, for attempting to order food at the segregated lunch counter at McCrory's.
