Description:
A black-and-white digital image of Reverend C. T. Vivian, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Rosa parks seated at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church. Vivian can be seen adjusting his shirt collar, wearing a dark suit. King sits leaning forward, holding a pamphlet, wearing a lighter colored suit and striped tie. Parks, seated next to him, is leaning back in her chair, wearing a light colored skirt suit and matching pillbox hat with a ribbon pinned on. She is holding her handbag in her lap. A folding chair, not in focus, can be seen in front of parks. There is a curtain running behind Vivian, King, and Parks separating the stage from the seats behind. Women sit in the seats, including one holding a paper fan.
