Abstract
Silkscreened poster in red, green, black, and cream depicting African American women in a protest march, probably the November 25, 1978 National March on Tupelo, sparked by police brutality against African-Americans. Two of the marchers are wearing t-shirts that read "Justice for All." The poster features a quote from Alfred "Skip" Robinson: "The battle lines drawn in Tupelo do not end in Mississippi, but extend into every city and town in this country where discrimination and bigotry exist." Rubberstamp on the verso: "Unity, P.O. Box 26229, San Francisco."
