Milwaukee Public Schools Black Pupil Walkout
| Several African-American teenagers are standing outside a building, some wearing coats and some under umbrellas. A sign reads: "Fight for the Right." Caption reads: "Some of the estimated 1,300 youngsters who participated Friday in a black pupil walkout from Milwaukee Public Schools left Parkman Junior High School. The walkout, which was sponsored by the Organization of Organizations and Blacks for Two Way Integration, was to protest desegregation and its burden on blacks." |
