Title: Billboard Near Highway
Description: Image of a billboard near a road taken by a civil rights volunteer. A man stands in front of the billboard across the road.

"'Martin Luther King at Communist Training School' reads and pictures the billboard along Mississippi highways. Personally, I thought how wonderful it was to see a friend's picture on the Mississippi highways every now and then."
