Demanding Racial Justice
A member of the Black Muslims organization sells a newsletter in New York City demanding justice for African Americans. During the early 1960s when this photo was taken, racial discrimination had become a volatile issue. The Black Muslims took a militant stance toward race issues, demanding justice “regardless of the price.”
