The March on Washington started August 28, 1963. The protest’s point was for the poor to emerge from poverty’s shadows. Michael Harrington, the author of <em>The Other America</em>, described the poor as politically invisible. The March on Washington helped them become visible. Civil rights activist Bayard Rustin believed in human power, equality, and justice. Rustin read his demands in front of many Americans, stating that the civil rights bill then before Congress needed strengthening. He listed demands to combat poverty by ending segregation between African and White Americans and by withholding federal funds from segregated programs. He also demanded the disapproval of segregation in schools, housing programs, and employment. Another issue was income. Therefore, Rustin demanded a minimum wage and job training for all black and white men to end unemployment; and a stronger Fair Employment Practices Commission. Many African Americans were excluded from protection under the 14<sup>th</sup> Amendment, Rustin demanded enforcement, which meant the right to vote, which would be the most effective way to change society.</p> </div> </div> </div>
