DETAILS: Original pinback button issued by the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) for the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King's 1965 Freedom Now tour. King visited four cities on the tour (Philadelphia, Chicago, Cleveland, and Boston) in order to bring attention to the plight of African Americans under segregation. Almost all of the political material distributed by the SCLC for the tour displayed Rev. King's name or image. This pin design is a rare example of one that did not. Measures 1 1/2" inches. Rare.
