The Purpose Of The March On Washington

The March On Washington’s Statement

What is “ The March On Washington”? Many others far and wide are aware of the march on Washington, But not many know what its true purpose was. The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, also known as the March on Washington, was a historic civil rights demonstration on August 28, 1963, in Washington, D.C. The march was organized by a coalition of civil rights, labor, and religious organizations, and it is greatly remembered for Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" speech. An estimated 250,000 people attended the march, one of U.S. history's most significant political rallies.
