50th Anniversary March on Washington

DescriptionI attended the 50th Anniversary celebration of the March on Washington August 24, 2013. It was a wonderful experience and I decided to make a memory quilt using T-shirts and buttons that I purchased at the event. Photos are by Jacqueline Maness and Oscar D. Robinson, Jr.
