50th Anniversary March on Washington
  • 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington

    On August 27th hundreds of citizens attended the 2013 Conference on Civil Rights: Marching Forward By Looking Back. The following morning, on August 28, 2013, thousands of citizens, from across this country, converged upon our nation’s capital to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington.
    This site provides opportunities for people to share remembrances of and pictures from both marches. Additionally, visitors to this site can get updates on a variety of ongoing civil rights initiatives intended to make Dr. King’s dream a reality.

    Thank you for your support!

PANEL DISCUSSION | ASHLAWN

SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION

More than a half a million people live in the District of Columbia.  They pay their full share of federal taxes; fight and die in the same wars as any other American; and have the same set of civics responsibilities that a resident would in any other state within the United States of America, yet they are denied voting representation in the United States house and the senate.   Come and learn (from the leadership team at D.C. vote) why this issue should matter to you even though you don’t live in our nation’s capital.  Attend this panel discussion and learn what leaders are doing to secure full voting representation in congress for the District of Columbia and how you can support that effort.
