Demonstrators at a PUSH (People United to Serve Humanity) March supporting the Hawkins Humphrey Bill. Protest signs worn and held by the demonstrators read: "Silver Rights Now, Jobs for All, Support Hawkins-Humphrey Bill." The large sign in the center reads: "AFSCME Says, You Can't Spend A WIN Button." WIN stands for "Whip Inflation Now," a failed program started by President Gerald Ford. Caption on the reverse reads: "March around the White House 46th Anniv. of MLK birthday."
